Faces II

HB Staedtler softlead pencil

















Yoga People

F and 2B Staedtler softlead pencils


































Just doodling a bit, haven't drawn in a while and it's so nice to spend time doing it. My mind is a wanderer and drawing really keeps me focused and I like that. In fact, I really appreciate how art enables me to be still and have precise concentration yet feel soothed at the same time.

Faces


I think I enjoy drawing people and faces the most out of all things. Hair is enjoyable too.

Acrylic on canvas
16x30in
This is a painting I started many months ago. I worked bit by bit on it and kept putting off finishing it because the grass and trees on the right hand side were really frustrating and weren't turning out the way I wanted. Everything else turned out well though I think.

This is a remake of a painting by Thomas Kinkade from his book Simpler Times.

Drawing


It has always been drawing that was my primary art focus, however over the years I grew a strong interest in painting as well using variety of mediums. 

The first drawing I just finished today, and the second one I did probably about 4 years ago or so. I'm not actually a big fan of Christina Aguilera (although I do have great respect for that voice of hers), but I used to be when I was a lot younger so I had her CD lying around and decided to draw from it!

The pencils I use are Staedtler Mars Lumograph softlead pencils.
