Face on newsprint
I'm using newsprint to practice making quick, large drawings. For some reason, the colors are really wonky when I use my digital camera instead of the scanner. It's too big for the scanner.
Since they seemed to have either a blue cast or a yellowish one, I set the camera on "sepia" and gave it a brown cast.
Really though, it was just plain pencil on newsprint.
Welcome to my site. I work in a public library amid books and computers, but am an artist and dreamer. Sometimes I am lucky enough to do a Streetpainting Festival (chalk on pavement). I post drawings on Flickr and have a couple of blogs.
Lately I do more art thanks to sharing online and seeing what other artists are doing. I'm originally from Alaska (born there) lived in Oregon and California and I now live in Arizona. I love my digital camera for saving ideas to use later. I enjoy blues music, Thai curry, and red wine. I admire anyone who does watercolor or Pastel.
What do I long to do? Take a life drawing class, which I haven't done since college days.
