Horse Racing….Place…Still
I evened out the horse color with a larger brush and a darker brown. Which now means I have to “replace” the shadow lines.
Being super frustrated with my inability to draw the horses body consistently, I had to concentrate on something else. I will need to go in and make the eye area more pronounced. Glad this part came easier.
I love working in my kitchen….It gets lots of sun….all…day…long. Natural light is always the best!
This is pretty much the standard look when I work…..the hard part is grabbing the correct pencil. I’m surrounded by dozens of watercolor pencils mixed with even more regular colored pencils. And there is a purpose to each. At this point, when I’m doing more of the detail work…guess which pencil I grab? Yep, the regular colored pencil one.
Now for the game……Can you spot the differences between the two pictures?

About Me

- By day...I work in the Healthcare field, where every .. i.. has to be dotted and every ..t.. has to be crossed. This blog is the place where I can let myself go and have some fun. I am on a journey. A journey I started a long time ago, but it has been a bit sidetracked with Navy Wife relocations and raising kids. I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel and I have got some time for me. No, I will not be one of those moms walking around the house with Empty Nest Syndrome, I have got way too much to do, to learn, to create. Sure, once the kids are gone I will miss them....but hey, there is always the phone, the email, the texting and the Plane tickets! I love my life and my family and It is fun moving into this new stage. I am into Digital Scrapbooking, photography, journaling, Art Journaling and Drawing. I am a do-it-yourselfer and I am trying to teach myself to draw. I am finding that it takes a lot of patience, lots of practice and a good eraser! And if you're really curious there's a 3 part Interview by Eileen: HERE All the best, Eden

This is looking great! At first I was worried because I thought that was a bowl of cereal on your work (!!) but then I realized it's your pencil shavings.
I like seeing where you work, and all the supplies you use.
Hi Janet...too funny about the cereal...yea, I'd be worried too :D
Over from jenniebellies. That's fantastic! You are much braver than me drawing horses (yikes! Just the thought of doing a horse makes me come out in a cold sweat). Looked at some of your recent posts and love that you've been colouring in some of Janet's pictures...what a lovely collaboration. You did a great job on them.
Thanks Carin, this collaboration has been a lot of fun!! Hope to do more :)
