AEM DAY 20


Just playing around with faces in different drawing styles. I find if I think to hard I lose what I am trying to do so need to distract myself and let the drawing sort of flow. Don't know if it's a left brain, right brain thing but my logical side is saying one thing and my creative side struggles because of all the noise. So I always work with the radio or TV on to shut the voices up and quite often have one or two things on the go at the same time too - if I get stuck with one thing I move over to the other until the flow comes back. And of course having a little one around is enough of a distraction. And guess who I caught adding her own little embellishments this morning. Wish I'd had a camera handy to capture her face when she realised I was watching her, a mixture of guilt and smugness all rolled into one!

I like the way you are drawing ontop of things, reminiscent of your collage work with hints of images and also photoshop layering.

i like to do that too, work with tv or radio on in the background to turn that talky side of my brain off. cool to hear that someone else does that too! i love the faces and flowers here!
