Unfinished City
Holiday preparation is eating my brain. Here’s another drawing from when I was pregnant.
Obviously unfinished. Another one I did at a Borders (a what now?) and since I’m not all that practiced at this kind of landscape (or any kind of landscape really) I didn’t get that far in the space of a decaf Oreo Javakula and a brownie. This is, apparently, the city of Pitigliano, from the book The Most Beautiful Villages of Tuscany.
Garden Drawing
It’s been a productive weekend (which isn’t necessarily all you want from a weekend, but the weekend before Christmas, necessary) so I forgot to post yesterday until I was already in bed. I’m not sure I would have had time to write anything of quality anyway.
Speaking of not having time to write anything of quality.
Here’s a drawing:

Click on image for larger version. (I recommend it, shrinking didn’t really agree with the line quality here.)
I drew this while I was pregnant. I’ve got a thing for intricate organic shapes. It’s labeled “Golden Gate: February” which I assume is the Magazine I was drawing from. I don’t have the magazine because I did my drawing in Borders. Ahhh, Borders.
Unfortunately I didn’t note down the type of flower. The drawing is done in fine tipped ball point pen and graphite (which is pretentious for pencil).

Pen Tester
Today’s Illustration Friday topic was “contraption” and I realized I never posted the drawing I did for Matt’s Pen Testing talk a while ago.

Hoping to post soon with new photos of Ender. He’s 4 months old!
