Selfies, Sketch of Lynn, Ann Hyde
Thanks for the ok to use your photo Lynn, but I did warn you I'm no good at portraits, lol !!!!
Okay, it's time to use the expression I learned in SBS. The inner critique as The Monkey that talks you into believing that you aren't doing a good enough job of your art. Let that monkey go please. I do like this drawing of me very much. And again, I remind everyone, that art is not photography, we are not going to draw ourselves or each other to look like a photo of that person. Please love your art! I do!
Thanks so much for dropping in and leaving your reactions to our art! We appreciate your comments! They are now being moderated however, to weed out spammers!
Ann, I think this one came out even better than the one above. Nice!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Joan...this was the first attempt. I went straight in with pen on this one, which I found more difficult, but glad you liked it.
DeleteThis is a fine painting, I like the colours!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sirkka :-)

ReplyDeleteThanks Lynn and thanks for the reminder about the Monkey....it is so true, we tend to criticize ourselves too much :-)
