Couch Therapy {Drawing}

Drawing people is tough, and not just because hands and feet are awkward to capture and I keep messing up proportion, but because few people enjoy sitting still enough to be drawn.

Solution: find your victim on a couch, enthralled by a gripping movie or engrossed in a good book.

This first one (of my Mr) was drawn in pencil.

And this one was drawn in a black pen.

Anyone trying to draw more often and blogging about it? I'd love to visit your blog so feel free to share the inspiration.

*Yawn* Good night.

Take a Seat {Drawing}

A drawing a day for the month of January? What was I thinking?!

Let me tell you that the whole artsy-fartsy thing is a lie... artists are extremely disciplined. Art is hard. But although I've done some waste-of-paper sketches (I might not show you those ones), I've never felt better about a New Year's resolution.

Oh, here's a chair. Bye.

Potato Forest {Drawing}

This is what happens when you buy a big sweet potato, with the intention of roasting it, but then throw oven bake chips in the oven instead because it's faster. Yes, I'm that kind of girl.

Okay, so I'm no Nigella but I have a potato forest. It's okay to feel just a little jealous. 

Oh, and this is my first drawing of 2012. I'm trying to complete a drawing a day for the month of January. It's my first self-challenge for the New year and I have to say, it's far more inspiring than trying to lose weight.  

Chips anyone?
