So drawing has been rough as of late, life is having a way of interfering with my sitting down to relax and draw a beautiful work of art. This particular piece has been in the works for about 2 weeks and although I wasn’t quite sure what the paper wanted to be, every time I would sit down at the drawing table someone had something urgent (or so they though )that I had to tend to. Today seemed to be no different, as I sat down and no sooner started to put the pencil to paper came a knock at the door. Once I sat back down I was now more than ever determined to complete the task at hand, slowly the palm tree started to take shape fallowed by water and sky and then a little bit of fantasy slipped into the picture as the as WATCH TOWER started to come to life with every stone being placed on top of the last, once the top of the lighthouse was complete, the water started flowing back down towards the see and after about 6 hours I sat back and was impressed at what came out of pure determination. Yes life is still GREAT. This is on 9 x 12 98lb Canson multimedia paper, done with Prang and Artist loft pencils.
