One day last week, in between reading books, I picked up one of my mechanical pencils and did a little sketching to try to stay in practice until my want to comes back. The first two are quirky doodle images, which emerged from a bunch of random pencil marks on my sketchbook pages, plus a few enhancements from my imagination. I left most of the random marks on the pages just for fun.
You may can tell that my heart wasn't in it (my heart isn't into much these days), but at least I tried.
I've also put the cage doll parts in a cookie tin and set her aside for now, because I didn't want to go to the trouble of sanding all the places that I need glue to stick. I HATE sanding, and I suspect that that is the reason the pieces didn't stick the first time.
All I want to do right now is read, and I read the whole book "The Last of the Moon Girls" by Barbara Davis last week after I finished another book, whose title escapes me at this moment, but it was also a mystery. I also read more chapters in the "Simple Abundance Companion" by Sarah Ban Breathnach and am halfway through "Girl Alone" by Blake Pierce. All good reads, as were several other mystery/thrillers I've read in the last few weeks on my Kindle. I'm also reading about and looking at a lot of art stuff online, as well as playing a lot of Mahjong. Reading was one of my first passions, that I haven't done much of in a long time, so I've re-discovered how much I love reading books again. I love it!
Just wish I could get my dining room/studio cleaned and organized so that I have room to create in a better space than my recliner. I also need to be able to find stuff! I think it might help my muse to come back home. Maybe soon ...
Thanks for visiting, take care, and stay safe and well! :).
