Daily Sketching Day 27-Day 44

I've been having a blast! I really thought I would stop my "Daily Sketch" at the end of January, but here we are at February 13 and I'm still going strong. Will be a really productive artsy year if I can keep this up. I'm in the middle of several online art classes so there are many more pieces than what I'm posting as my daily sketch. So far, this is a great year!

Daily Sketching - Day 20 - 26

This has really been a busy month and I'm shocked that it's already approaching the end! I have kept up with my sketching every day even if some have been rushed or not my best, but still I've done it. And so here they are:

I don't know if I'll shoot for every day in February or not, but this has been fun to challenge myself to doing a daily sketch. Some days I have done more than one and have been spinning and knitting some days, too, so it's been one of my most creative months - making this a great start to the new year! Hope you're creating, too.

Daily Sketch - Day 12 through 19!

Time has flown by and I've been busy keeping up with my January sketch a day. Here's a glimpse of what I've done since my last post:

Day 17

Day 18

The cat was Day 18 and below is Day 19. I've tried to do something special for each day, but today I studied perspective and these are the results. Still have lots to learn, but pretty pleased with how these turned out, so Day 19 is now complete!

Day 19

I will be back soon with a post of my latest yarns and Bible Journaling! 

2016 Day 11 Watercolor Sketch

Day 11- and I tried something new. Well, new to me. I just took a page in my journal and started adding colors.  I knew I wanted a bouquet in a pot of some sort and the pot turned out to be a teapot of sorts! lol I walked off and let it dry! That is so hard for me to do - once I start I just want to keep on going, but I knew I couldn't add ink until it was dry so I busied myself .

When I came back I began to do some inking with my Pitt fine point pen and added some additional green stems and leaves and added some color to the flowers and teapot. I added some swirls and color to ground it. I was pretty sure I was done, so I signed and dated it!

Well, that was not the case. As always, I had to add some more ink and color and then I could call it done. Well, for today!   lol I will probably still add more later, even weeks or months later when I look at it again and see a spot that I would like to change. I'm not for sure a piece is ever done!

There will be another sketch tomorrow, but may save up for a few days and do a post about my most current yarns.

Come back and see what's next.

You can always find me on Instagram and Facebook, too!

2016 - Goal to Make a Sketch a Day!

Don't know why I feel this way, but I love even numbered years. Not that unpleasant things haven't happened in the evens, but I just like them better. Same for age - 2, 4 8. 10. 16 19 etc. When I was younger I used to jump ahead and skip over the odd ages as I've gotten older I tend to just stay the even age two years. lol

But with 2016 I decided to try for a sketch a day! Of course, it's a goal and not a promise, but so far so good!

A quick preview of the first ten days!

Well, there are the first 10 days! I do post my daily sketch on Instagram #bevdailysketch2016.  You can see them there or my Facebook Page "Bev Ann's Mixed Bag."

Of course, I'm doing some spinning too, but that's for another post.

Later.
