Sketch for a Painting

Prismacolor Art Stix - 9 x 12 inches

Sketch for a painting in progress. - Since I was repeatedly changing the colors on my current canvas, I decided to set the painting aside and work out the palette and composition in a drawing. The Mark-A-Day drawings have really helped me to loosen up and draw more from intuition rather than from concentration.

March Roars In

All this came down over night. I hated shoveling snow when I was a teen. You know, when your parents hung allowance over your head in order to get you to do your chores? Backbreaking, slave drivers!

Now, it's a totally different experience. After brushing off the Jeeps and shoveling, I feel rather invigorated. Cold stimulating my blood, muscles filled with adrenalin and the satisfaction of completing the task. Well, truth be told, I didn't have to shovel the entire walkway and drive... we do have a snowblower. (grin)

At present is a lull in the storm, more is still to fall. Think I'll take a little nap. (chuckle)
