A day of play and old friends

#willowtree Out front of my grandparent’s house was this huge willow tree with tendrils that reached the ground in summer - my brother and I loved to run and jump up to grab a handful and swing on the branches. Of course, when Grandma caught us hanging off her willow tree like that she’d yell at us out the back door to stop wrecking her tree 😂 poor tree, though to be fair I think it survived us and probably our mom and her brothers too 😂
I found my pen I’ve been looking for about 5 years… it was right where I had put it for safe keeping… the pen drawer 😂 with my other pens…
Trying to keep my markmaking light today #drawingthehead #selfportrait #graphite #selfie #loveyourself #selfcare #365lovenotestoself #draweveryday #drawingpractice #artiststudio #oddy23
#metalpoint Feline cute might delete later 😂 practicing #metalpoint on gouache prepared paper. My cat is #copperpoint the rest with #silverpoint
#silverpoint #metalpoint #copperpoint #artexperiment Hard to see in this photo but I’ve done a quick study of a #kathekollowitz drawing on a scrap of gesso-primed paper using copperpoint (the figure) and a bit of silverpoint (the background area behind the head). I think I might be into something…I’m loving this Renaissance technique…
My tutor Sharon suggested I try #silverpoint and so I tried it today by inserting a bit of 22/24 ga silver wire from my jewellery kit into a clutch pencil to see if it would work…
#kelisestudiosneakpeek : selfies!
#kelisestudiosneakpeek : get a head
I might be onto something with this way of exploring the features of the head and face with a sort of mapping using lines and dots to find the “landmarks”… amazing day with @royaldrawingschool
