Portrait of a Woman. Charcoal and Chalk.

 


A quick portrait of a woman.  I used charcoal and chalk.  I do not have many colors in chalk. Chalk is difficult to blend.  ,

I am still working out my blocks.  Second sketch today but no luck.  I am waiting for the Aquanet to dry on this one so I can try another.  

Fruit charcoal and chalk sketch

I can't seem to leave the sketchbook.  I have alot on my mind.  Anxiety is at the highest level.  I am very distracted.  Well enough about that.
Fruit sketch with charcoal and chalk.  Finished off with Aquanet.  

I am about to try another sketch. I hope it breaks me of my block.

Charcoal and chalk Drawings

I thought I would try something a little different today.  I used chalk and Charcoal to draw these pictures.  The paper I used was toned grey. 

I am still working through a block in productivity.  Maybe a few more drawings will help me over my hump.

Bird Sketchbook Painting Acrylic

I was fooling around in my sketchbook again.  I am still looking for something to paint.  I have plenty of canvas ready, just no ideas.  Maybe I will get inspired with my daytrip to Racine, Wi.  I will be by the lake.

Sketchbook Sunflower


Trying to get back into the swing of painting.  What better place to paint than my sketchbook.  I am trying to get an idea for a large painting. I think I am getting close.  Any day now.  lol.

Enough blogging and more painting.  Maybe another post today of a sketchbook painting.

 

Another Self Portrait

The first picture is the underpainting. Burnt Sienna on canvas board.


The last photo is the completed painting.  I am not to happy with it. I am having a difficult time painting. I will probably try again soon. I just need to get out of the funk I am in.
