As the school year quickly winds down and with my husband's real estate business rapidly growing, there have been some changes in our routine.
I simply have less time to work on my projects.
But I managed to take some time for art today. Art always makes me feel centered. After several hours of immersing myself in creativity, I now feel refreshed.
I'm thrilled how it turned out and couldn't wait to share it with you.
I started with a pencil drawing, and followed with a wash.
Then I took out my medium, dark, and white charcoal pencils and added some more shading and details.
Captivating no. 1: Ink pen, watercolor, charcoal on paper.
Beautiful Yuko! Glad you managed to squeeze in time in your busy life. It can be hard to do can't it?
ReplyDeleteYes, it's been a bit challenging. But it's rewarding when I actually take the time to do something creative just for fun.

DeleteWow...this is fantastic! i made a few cards Sunday morning; i know what you mean about creating art and its centering effect.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jenn! I find creating anything - from drawing, painting, baking dessert, or sitting at my piano for half an hour - very rewarding. It nourishes my soul. I'd love to see your handmade cards some time :)
DeleteLovely job! I love creating art for our walls either by myself or with friends! It makes it all the more special!

Thanks Eddie! That's exactly why I started making art again, to decorate my walls. It's a great idea to create art with friends. I must try that :)
