Trying yo draw people more. This was a challenge because everyone was rushing 😅

#dailydrawing #artstr #sketchstr #art #sketch

Yeah, people from life is super hard. That's good work.

And this will be the intro music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeKsnUGUq2U

I've been offered a small space in a local radio. And I am planning on what to do or what to say.

Apparently I have freedom. Yet the space belongs to the public university and there is some editorial line there. So I should probably not cross that lines at first. Though little seeds of wisdom can be dropped there...

Shoot ideas.

I thought the space should be called "Dentro" (means "Within")

"Sleepers, wake. The voice calls"

I chose it because of the hymn it contains. Written after a devastating epidemic, the hymn was written as a message of hope and grace in which we must hold our own lights to receive the new day.

So this modern jazzy version of it will help grease the solemnity of the original and yet, contain it and bring it to life.

The first theme that I will present will be gratitude. Being grateful.

"When a complex system is far from equilibrium, small islands of coherence in a sea of chaos have the capacity to shift the entire system to a higher order.”

Ilya Prigogine, Nobel Laureate

We are the little island.

I am a little island of coherence

Good luck to you sir.

Daily drawing day 299: creating mood with minimal colour palette. Really like where this is going, want to explore these colours more!

#dailydrawings #dailyart #proofofwork #artstr #ArtOnNostr

Ooh, limited color palette is so interesting. I look forward to more.

Another one! I'm feeling good about complete these paintings, they are pretty big for me. I am going to try and get in more short exercises and value studies in between.

I had a few references for this but wasn't coping any of them directly, which was a great challenge. I need suggestions for painting sand with watercolor... Anyhow, I'm pretty happy with it.

#FPQuestion of the day:

You are given the opportunity to work with any ink maker to create your own custom ink. What ink manufacturer would you choose? What kind of color(s) would you pick? What would you like your ink to evoke or to take as inspiration? What kinds of properties would you like to have your ink to have (e.g. shimmer, sheen, shading, multishading)? What would you name your ink?

#FountainPen #FountainPenInk

Lol, this is too much! I will say that I like Monteverde inks at the moment, they are just really well behaved. I guess I would go for a deep orange with plenty of shading, I think shading looks really fun in brighter inks. I'm really not sure what I could possibly name it...maybe Quintessential Orange? I imagine a more fiery version of Quinacridone Gold, commonly known as Quin Gold in Watercolor.

I like it! What size is this one?

10” x 7”⅝

I have a book of paper that my grandma spilled something on, so I'm cutting off the ruined bits and using them up. Trying to use it to help me loosen up, I'm kind of a perfectionist.

I helped move dirt today!

Back to landscaping. Good job.

#photography #canon #artstr #photostr

Nice! It is good to do hard work. I just helped fill walls with hempcrete last week, left me sore but happy.

Finished!

Not a great composition again, I need to bite the bullet and paint larger!

Tasting the first homegrown dried tobacco...

Very soft and gentle. It is very different from a commercial one. God knows what additives they have...

I definitely plan on smoking a pipe with homegrown tobacco when I start turning gray.

If I could have this ability to synthesize form and color, evoking emotion as this painting does, it would be the pinnacle of my “short” painting career for me.

There is a certain subtle depth to the emotion. I feel like your depiction of form is usually quite good, but I do see that the emotion here is a touch more... real?

This painting was called a ‘sketch’ and laughed out of the gallery.

It launched a revolution instead.

Impressionism.

That's interesting, it does look like a sketch in comparison to his later work.

GM! Someone likes a lot of paint. I don't see a signature, who painted this?

As you weren't generous enough for me to buy new boards to finish the playhouse I am forced to be resourceful. I found these thrown at a waste bin and I'm going to use them.

So here I am taking the old nails out so I can cut them to size and finish the contours of the upper part of the playhouse.

I hope I can finish it before my kids emancipate and have their own families. Or perhaps it was just meant to be for my grandsons if any

Nice haul of wood, I tend to use scrap alot too. When I was a kid I'd have been the one with the pliers pulling nails out of boards.

I found an old hard drive. It was my father's backup drive. So I will be throwing some pictures. Mostly of him and his work, he was a sculptor.

What a find! And quite the legacy of craftsmanship it seems.

This was commissioned by a psychologist. To decorate his studio.

So my father did this head with a couple of layers.

First a mask, then the carcass of polyester and inside there is this other head jail of iron and then in the center an alabaster ball. It all fitted together and you could play with the puzzle.

Wow.

This is my first time doing an art prompt challenge, and it’s on Nostr (🤔)

May 1: Aster

This is actually the flower that I’ve had as my phone wallpaper for like, 5 years now? I just never knew the name of it.

Rules for myself -

1. do a fast drawing in one sitting. I have a tendency to be perfectionistic … trying to be accurate and include everything, which is rough cuz the longer you look at something, the more you notice. But it’s like, nope, just stop, it’s fine.

I tend to be a perfectionist myself and I am gonna try some art with that exact list!
