Some Practice Sketches

Spring! My favorite season! Except for the storms.

I'm still in a slump creative, and otherwise, but I have done a little bit of practice sketching the last few days. Although I didn't make photos, I also pasted a few collage elements into my Wandering Muse journal, so I guess that's something. 😊


Inspired by a Renoir print on board that I got at a flea market years ago, and sketched from across the room from the comfort of my recliner.


This lady is a quirky doodle sketch, and was originally just stabilo pencil empty coat sleeves, but today I used a water brush pen to brush over the pencil, then used white gesso brushed over that to make her a furry muff. I like her better than the original now.


Same sketch, but cropped with a burlesque filter added. I think she's interesting and mysterious!


Wrens are my favorite birds, so I found a couple of pictures on Pinterest, and also a cute fox to do quick sketches of.


A quick bunny sketch, also from a Pinterest photo.

Their eyes actually have highlights, but they're not showing up in the photos.

In lieu of making stuff, but also creative and exercise for my mind, I have discovered online jigsaw puzzles, and have also introduced hubby to them. We have both been really enjoying them. In fact, it's a new addiction!

Waiting for my creative juices to start flowing again, and trying to make myself do some Spring cleaning...

Stay safe and well!
