Inspiring talk…
this morning I organised a talk for my local art group… we meet on a Tuesday morning here in Staithes… some weeks we all just do ‘our own thing’ but sometimes we arrange for a speaker or artist to do a demonstration. Today Peter Hicks presented his talk about Lilian Colbourn… I had the job of thanking Peter at the end of the talk but ran out of words to use… wonderful … stunning… were a couple of the words I used… we were also lucky to have Lilian’s daughter Gloria present at the talk so she added another side to the talk about her mother. Gloria, herself is an artist, she also takes some wonderful photos as well as writing about the fishing industry here on the north east coast.
Adding details…
Well this is one of my pictures with a few details added… I’m not happy with how it’s all worked out but I do like some bits of it…. the following is a close up of one part…
Still room for improvement I think…
so I’m still just working in my sketchbook… lol
another doll…
I’ve not been able to settle to any one thing in the last few days… however, I’ve have made another paper doll… I’ve named her my map doll…
I liked just following the line created by the paint colours and the texture of the tissue stuck to the card… it took very little thought… something I’ve been doing too muchof in regard to some pictures I’m suppose to be entering into an exhibition… the deadline is tomorrow.. June 15th…
this is one of them… I’m suppose to be showing three…
just a quick reminder please leave a comment and I enter you in my draw… see earlier post ‘a little celebration’…
