Firstly, there is no good reason for the sudden appearance of a tea cup sketch on today's spread except that I am feeling a bit frazzled and somehow cup sketches are soothing.
Secondly, I am approaching this years challenge in a completely different way to last year. Last year I started the month stressing a little at the thought of 'having' to sketch each night and rushed a few in order to get it done quickly and out of the way. I then regretted it because I saw all the beautiful work of others who had put the effort in. This year, post long service leave trip, I sketch a lot more normally and am able to sketch quicker...so I am not putting any pressure on myself but see this month's challenge as an opportunity for some sketch therapy at the end of a day...with hopefully some variety in subjects (but you know me...) and often trying to tie the challenge in with the days/weeks events.
Thirdly, as I thrive on spontaneous sketching, I have found already that what I plan and what is the end result is quite different... this random page just evolved as I was working on it. (Lots on my mind tonight!)

Great sketch and thoughts Liz
ReplyDeleteI find the color combinations are great! The warm yellow matches perfect with the greens and browns.
