I slept off with Josh today but as I got up before him. I managed to squeeze this sketch before he changed positions.
AFRO SERIES XI, 10" x 13", mixed media, 2008
The model is a long time respected friend of mine.........I wasn't keen on getting a resemblance.
The emphasis once again is the beauty of black hair!
EMOTIONS III, 11" x 14", mixed media, 2008
Tentative...............the third in my emotion series. These faces tell the whole world.......it's written!
This was developed from one of my tube sketches.
This is all about the mental state of people that can arise spontaneously rather than through conscious effort, it could be accompanied by physiological changes; a feeling: the emotions of joy, sorrow, reverence, hate, and love.. etc

Through some inspiration from Silvina Day while commenting on one of the series, I decide to add one of me!

The emphasis once again is the beauty of black hair!

This was another opportunity to join other artists in Karin Juricks Different Strokes from different folks. This week it was still life and I can't remember when last last I did still life. But this was the task for the week and I gave it a go. I have used biro,tombow wash pens, gouache and acrylic.
