Three Pages From My Current Sketchbook

in OCD5 years ago

Hello all, 😘 sending you well wishes!



These three painted pages are from my current sketchbook, which I started in January 2020.

I filled in the pages of this book with simple line work scenes and abstract sketches using black marker pen. Now I'm in the process of finishing the book by filling in the best ones with watercolor. Creating is an enjoyable way to de-stress and re-center the mind and spirit, so it contributes to good health. 💪 Here's what we got so far:

First is a triumphant being with arms outstretched, victorious, despite mostly dark surroundings. Prepare to take flight!

Next is a lively abstract scene. Lots of movement and color, hustle and bustle. This page was done 'fast and dirty'. Forgot to get the "before" on this one.

Finally, another colorful page, perhaps less busy. It has a feeling of connection to "real world" imagery with the leafy shapes.

THANK YOU everyone!

Take care of each other and enjoy the beauty of the day, wherever you can find it. And when you do find it, make a post and share it with the rest of us 😁.

Until next time, PEACE.

Sort:  

I got a I'M FREEEEEEEEEEE vibe from the first piece, caterpillar finally busted out as a butterfly style XD

The last one is the type you could hang in a kitchen for a splash of colour and visual interest if still life isn't your thing :)

Yes, freedom! Oh, yep these things would definitely add 🎉pizzazz🎉 to a wall :)

Love the vibrant colors in all of them. Especially liked the last one with the leafy patterns. How long have you been doing this? I would like to start but feel a bit shy about it.

Glad to share, thank you :) I've been drawing since as long as I can remember, but have worked more seriously at refining my style and skills for the last 4 or 5 years. If you have the desire, I encourage you to start! Now is a great time to learn.
