Now, you can safely read the rest of this post.
I've been drawing! and painting! and cutting out things! and taping! and gluing! All in the name of doing a little CPR on my creativity. (Hmmm...CPR...Creativity!Power! R..oh, forget it.)
I started working on a new little birdie drawing, and it was going well until I completely overworked it and couldn't get it back and it was on cold press paper which is the devil incarnate. inpapernate. inpulpnate.
Whatever. It's crap and I hate it.
I was only using it because I thought I was out of hot press.
But then? While I was looking for something else?
I found a whole new pad of hot press - a little smaller than I wanted to use, but at least it's not evil cold press.
And I started something new. Something smooth and hot pressy, with lots of line work. And oh, yes, you bet...there will be color. Tomorrow. And I will not overwork it because I am a strong and powerful woman.
Just like Madonna. (sorry...Glee...love it.)
Anyhow - what's up with the stacked birds? Honestly - I don't know. I'm thinking of stacking lots of different things - maybe it will be my next series...I need a good series...
Any suggestions? What should I stack?
Doughnuts! Shoes! Turtles! Snowglobes! Coffee cups!
ReplyDeleteoh how i love glee....and last night was fantastic. and as i type this, i'm listening to their cd
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mo! Excellent suggestions...I think I should start with doughnuts... :)
ReplyDeleteChar - I know - it was brilliant, wasn't it? And I ADORE the soundtracks...and listen to them way more often than I probably should...and sing along way too loudly...
-->I wish I could create things like that.
ReplyDeleteHow about stacking frogs?
Oooohhh...frogs! Excellent!
ReplyDeleteHmmm...I'm thinking donuts AND turtles ... with frogs on the side eyeballing it all...
ReplyDeleteThat's a bummer about the stacked bluebirds and the cold pressed paper. But I LIKES where this inky line drawing is heading -- yes I likes it, I does...
I think you should stack donuts but I know there would be bites out of each CHOCOLATE one in the stack!!!!
