Cow #6

Marker and Highlighter with White out tape on chipboard

This drawing is appealing to me probably because it looks like a painting. I'm hoping that one of these weekends I will force myself to break out the paint and do several 15 to 20 minute paintings. This drawing definitely sparks the desire for wet media. I keep feeling the need to explain why these images are not perfect and then I have to remind myself that 15 to 20 minutes does not allow for perfection, only getting the information down quickly while allowing myself the opportunity to be playful. SO, I won't continue to make comments like, "this drawing is terrible!". Well, I'll try anyway. :}

Cow #5

Created on the iPad in iDraw???

So I made this drawing on the iPad. I can't remember the what the app is called. I think it was iDraw but I can't be sure. As you are aware the iPad is a touch screen so it's kind of like finger painting without the mess. I did not use a reference image with this one and perhaps that is apparent. Meh, I like it anyway. I think I might go at this again with an actual reference and see what happens.

Thanks Mr.G for getting this image from the iPad to my email. I seriously wanted to punch it in the face last night so I couldn't have done it without you. ox

Cow # 4

Blind Contour on Paper

Oh man this photo is terrible. I am ashamed and in need of a camera...or better lighting. Whatev's...I did it and that 's all that matters.

Cow-A-Day: Sunday

I guess we are out of printer/copy paper at home so this is what I found in a fury last night.

You're welcome.

Sharpie on Grocery List

P.S. Monday's beauty will be uploaded this evening. I know you are all just DYING to see it already.

Cow-a-day: Saturday

Saturday's VERY quick drawing. Mr.G and I were watching Rambo when I remembered I needed to get my cow drawing done. Yes, that was the first time I ever watched Rambo. No, I don't remember much about it because I was not paying attention but I would wager I could give the general idea of the movie if questioned. I mean, how hard would that be?

Cow-a-day

Today is the first post for a month long cow-a-day drawing.

The parameters are as follows:

Use only materials that are on hand.
Time limit: 15-20 minutes.
Post finished image on blog. (The good, the bad and the really bad.)

Here is today's cow drawing:


Post-it note - sharpie & liquid white out
















Not a great picture I realize but it's from my phone. Actually, you can expect this kind of terrible quality for most of these posts because I don't have a camera anymore. I have a SUPER FANCY AWESOME camera that is mostly used by my husband and never with me when I need it. Therefore you will have to live with this until I get my own little point-and-shoot.

Oh! Feel free to join the fun if you'd like.
