I am not one for New Year's resolutions. I'm as likely to try something new or strive for "self-improvement" in July as I am in August. On that note, I am as likely to revert back to my old ways at any time of the year. But the idea of taking on a new project that is solely for me appeals to me. Motivated by my desire to bring pen to paper and inspired by Maribeth's paintings, yesterday I decided that I would draw a little something each day. Just a simple drawing of something from my day.
I'm keeping it simple because I don't want to be discouraged. I just want to enjoy each moment, each drawing. So far, I like what I'm doing. Focusing on the small things, not the big picture. Such simple drawings but three months ago I think I would have been staring at a blank page.
i love your little drawings and am inspired to pull out my watercolours. it's been SO long. thanks for the link to Maribeth's blog. it's really lovely.
ReplyDeleteLess can be so much more. . . lovely pictures. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteoooh... i like your little drawings and think i should get myself a little sketchbook too. i also agree with your words on resolutions, but man did i need to make some as soon as january started. we broke every rule of our diet when my family was in town. and it was worth it. but, a change is necessary indeed.
ReplyDeletevery nice - i like the second one a lot.
ReplyDeleteTara - this is so wonderful. I will very much enjoy seeing what you do with your paint box. I just love the inspiration and sharing and learning we all get from one another.
ReplyDeleteThat little grey scene looks like it was drawn from the view from my kitchen window. Lovely resolution, can't wait to see more.
ReplyDeleteLovely Tara!
ReplyDeleteI love the simplicity...
i love the second one especially. i bought some new watercolors the other day and hope to play with them more this year.
