I came across the art work of Lipchitz in 2018.  I have been literally in awe of this particular painting and finally put paint on canvas.  I know that I will do more of Lipchitz's paintings.  The background is my own creation.

Figure Drawing from Live Model

Figure Drawing From a Live Model

Trying to better my skills at Figure Drawing, or as some may call it Life Drawing.  I am enrolled in an 8 week class at the Art League of Houston.  Each week we have a live male or female nude model.  The picture below is of a young woman.  I hope and believe (otherwise I wouldn't post it) that this work of art is not offensive to anyone.  If it is, please email me and I will remove this post.  

This drawing/sketch was a 15 minute pose done in charcoal and conte pencil.  

This is not for sale.  Just a recording on my blog to show progression.  

Hope you enjoy.

Its not a perfect camera shot but I did not think it needed to be.

I am very excited about this new adventure.  If it is successful - great!  If it is not success - then no regrets, I tried it!

Another Zentangle

Zentangle 

A Zentangle is a different form of art than a Mandela.  Zentangles open you up to being creative, while, I believe that a Mandela opens you up spiritually.  I enjoy doing both styles.

Here is a bouquet of Mother's Day Flowers.  I don't think I know one women who does not love flowers, and always enjoys recieving them on Mother's Day and truthfully any day of the year!

This was an interesting painting.  It has been quite a while since I have worked with Pastel Pencils.  (I believe the last one was my rendering of The Corn Poppy (interestingly named after the flower) by Dongen c. 1919).  Working with Pastel Pencil and watercolors gave this painting an interesting effect.  And because it is paper for pastels, the watercolors were gingerly applied.

Viola is a genus of flowering plants in the violet family.  Some Viola species are perennial plants, some are annual plants, and a few are small shrubs.  A large number of species, varieties and cultivars are grown in gardens for the ornamental flowers.  In horticulture the term "pansy" is normally used for those multi-coloured, large flowered cultivars.  So you see, although you may have wanted to call this a 'pansy', the terms "viola" and "violet" are normally reserved for small flowered annuals or perennials.

Garlic is a species in the onion family.  Its close relatives include the onion, shallot, leek, and chive.  Garlic is widely used around the world for its pungent flavor as a seasoning or condiment.  

The garlic plant's bulb is the most commonly used part of the plant.  Garlic cloves are used for consumption (raw or cooked) or for medicinal purposes.  They have a characteristic pungent, spicy flavor that mellows an ssweetens considerably with cooking.  Some human studies found garlic supplementation to produce small reductions in blood cholesterol.

The Snow Drop flower is formally known as Galanthus, Greek for milk flower.  These are perennials which grow from bulbs.  Each bulb generally produces just two or three linear leaves and an erect, leafless flowering stalk.  They flower between January and April in the northern temperatures.  There are a number of gorgeous Snow Drop gardens in England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland.  The short story "The Snowdrop" by Hans Christian Andersen follows the fate of a snowdrop from a bulb striving towards the light to a picked flower placed in a book of poetry.
