Each of these drawings are 2-1/4″ x 3-1/4″, drawn directly on the entry form called “Blank Canvas” for the magazine “Professional Artist”.
The 2 colored pictures are colored pencil. It hurts my wrist to use colored pencil over an extended period of time, but these went quickly.
And I love to draw in pencil. Pine cones are one of the hardest, most confusing subjects to draw because of all the repeating shapes, both in the dark spaces and the light places.
This was fun. If any of my pieces are chosen, they will be published in the magazine.
These subjects are definitely all part of a Central California artist’s life.
Yes, I know it is a good ploy by the magazine to acquire new subscribers. So?
It was fun!
