Today I did work on my Dragon sculpture, but I'm still in the boring cardboard stage.. so.. I'm sharing this. It's a tall Art Nouveau/Gothic Church Spire.
It came directly from my imagination.
Stay Artsy & DFTBA

Parisian Painting
Today I spent a few precious hours in my local Starbucks painting and reading.
With every page I read of A Movable Feast by Hemingway, the desire to pick up my brush and paint became harder and harder to deny. I love how his writing is a continues stream of thoughts, honest, somewhat blunt, partially funny, but always true. You know how he feels without himself telling you in a cliche way. What a gift! I want my paintings to have that truth.
Right now I'm working on a concept (not yet put on paper) that will involve fabric studies and reference photographs. Maybe I'll let you in on it this week.. hmm.

While I mulled these thoughts over I put in so time on my sisters' gift.
Now an elaborate chandelier and a bitter sweet girl hold center stage

All this winter weather and it's gray sky's and rain!
I needed a min-vacation today.
Somewhere old,
With beautiful architecture,
ideally in France.
So, I got onto Google Maps and used their photo maps to take a stroll down Quai de Bartentin, Orleans France.
Lucky for me the pictures had been taken in the spring or summer.
The light was warm, sky was blue and I stumbled on to this adorable house.

Covered in ivy and worn stucco, I knew this was a perfect subject to draw!
One Sharpie and 40 minutes later I have a bit of Orleans with me.Stay Artsy
