House on the hill v.4.2

It appears that I already have 3 other drawing with houses on hills so this one will be number 4 version 2. 

How many houses are there on the hills?

I was trying to finish all work first hoping to draw afterwards. I need to adjust priorities.

Exploring acrylic

Cute little baby looks better. Interesting experiment with acrylic! I am curious how to get soft transitions of colors and tones.

Visiting Mr.Giraffe

Mr. Giraffe lives in Daddy's closet. 

Trying acrylic.

Early Spring progress

Somehow I see everything now in warm tones.
Somehow a photograph turns warm tones into cold ones.

Cute little baby #2

My cute little Blueberry

I am getting tired of colored pencils. It takes so much time to get the right contrast and brightness. Thinking to switch to acrylic/watercolor or oil. Or at least I have to find a good eraser.
Excuses, excuses.  :)

Finished last week's drawing

"Finished" means I do not want to work on it any further.
This photo is not great, the lightest part of the drawing is in the shadow.

"Cornflakes" on Etsy

Selling "Cornflakes" on Etsy

My husband convinced me to remove this phrase from listing description: "I hope nobody buys it because I would like to keep it". Yes, very logical. Just spent an hour preparing the ad and editing the photos hoping not to sell it :) :)

That's how it looks like framed:

Red mystery house

I was always wondering where the windows are. You cannot see them from this angle and from another one either. Mmm, someone must like to hide!

Unfortunately (or fortunately) I have only one hour a day for drawing/painting. Well, it teaches not to waste time. I am asking myself: what if you gonna die tomorrow, or even today! How would you draw?

Warm colors of early Spring

Today I painted near our house while neighbor's workers listened to salsa music. It has been a while since I danced last time. Miss this music and dancing. No wonder I kept singing salsa song the rest of the day.
The composition is questionable but I might know how to fix it.

Same view / different view

You wake up hoping to finish sunny drawing and you see something completely different. I think I'd rather wait for another sunny day to finish yesterday's version of this little house. This is amazing how sun changes colors and .. pretty much everything! Our creator is the greatest artist of all.

Another house on another hill

Unfinished.
Spring colors and hopefully Spring mood to come.

The crowd

Very rough and quick drawing that reflects my mood.
Well, not everyday has to be colorful.

Water

Black and white.
Well, not necessarily black,... and not white :)

House on the hill

Well, I need to switch to black and white for a while because colors keep my focus away from something bigger.

Grass defeats the snow

When I was looking out of thw window and drawing this, I kept thinking, how on earth I ended up in the middle of nowhere with a Greek Orthodox church that I can see out of my window?! Too good to be truth.

Contrast and color

I think that's enough for this little drawing. It's time to get out of the house and paint beautiful early Spring!

Story time

My favorite girl that is holding a book looks like a monster on this drawing.
As soon as I took this picture, I knew what has to be fixed. Maybe tomorrow?

Story time at Windham Library

I did not finish this one yet, requires more than one hour lunch/nap break.

Snow. Memory eternal.

Winter view again

I am dying when I see all these breathtaking views when we drive in a car. But all I've got for now is this. Need to find ways to get out of the house more.

Winter scene

Another hour with colored pencils when my men are doing something cool (nap for the youngest, snowboarding for the greatest)

Experiment: day 2

Why do people draw and paint? Everybody has their own answer.

Another experiment

Trying to use a drawing as a sketch for this little painting. I had only one hour today. My plan is to have fun with this one.

Same view, no sun

It was snowing today. When my men napped I did this little drawing. I like how sun changes the colors.
