I'm creating a drawing a day, for two years, just for the art of it.

This is from the day before yesterday.

Today's is some flowers that spilled over the fence from next door's garden.

Today's tip: I'm not so perfect, I'm giving out advice, that sometimes works for me, in the spirit of help to others. It doesn't mean I always keep to everything I say, don't beat yourself up if you don't either. 😄

Sea

I'm creating a drawing a day, just for the art of it, and sharing an art tip too.

Today's drawing is a seascape.
Today's tip is: semetrical is usually not best, put things in groups of three and five(whole objects or just dark parts of a whole). Put horizons in any part of the page that is not the middle.

Tulip and art tip

I'm creating a drawing a day, just for the art of it, and sharing an art tip too.
Today's drawing is a tulip.
Today's art tip: Don't be afraid to wreck it! You can always do another, or photograph it or scan it then be brave. This drawing was a bit dull so right at the end I just decided "Let's wreck it and see!" Now I like it. See the dull version below.

Calligraphy butterfly with a brush

Today's is a calligraphy butterfly, yesterday's concept, with a bit more of whatever it was it needed, probably giving a **it, I was pretty exhausted yesterday.

Also I had some excellent advice, a girl needs a master calligrapher to turn to in times of stress! :)

Greenhouse.

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year because I don't want it to say on my headstone: "She fed her kids and kept up with Netflix!"


Today's is a greenhouse. I love greenhouses, such a mix of order and disorder. Orderly glass pains and riotous plants, rows of pots and uneven growth. Also they smell lovely and they are always warm. Victorian botanical gardens are my favourite but all greenhouses qualify for love.

Lillys.

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, because two kids and a freelance design business was not using up enough of the day!
