#181 Down
A few in a row where I do lines, following energy needs, that worked ok, but I don’t really want these abstracts right now… never mind.

It’s Sunday 3 December, walked round Hagley Park today – the flax is out. Spring is over – Summer is here.
Inspiration: linking to Daily Art, by Martha Collins.
Daily Art is a blog in my blogroll. There is a bit of art history everyday, todays is a Vuillard
I discover that it is part of something called Intimisme.
It ties in with how I was first introduction to Vuillard, he is the painter of the “Woman at a window sewing” on the cover of Thomas Moore’s book “Care of the Soul.”
I used that image years ago in a webpage describing Depth Psychology
I am attracted to his work, the soulfulness comes through to me in the style as much as the content. If the soul has colours & shapes – he seems to know how to make them.

I am putting inspirational images behind a More tag, so as not to confuse them with my own:
#180 Pine Ridge
I pronounced this one done. It was done quite quickly, but not really as there were a few goes that took a lot longer, but which I deleted. The speed seems to give it more character & freedom. It is in two pencil settings – one with just the point, the other with the largest possible he”angle” simulating a pencil used on its edge. Its done but I was after another look. There may be more along these lines to come!
All day I have been looking at the world thinking how could I do that in pencil? It is particularly hard when it comes to large areas of black & whiter than white highlights. How can that be done? I notice that sort of contrast on peoples faces. More pencil pending.

#0179 Weathered Flax Flowers
#178 Dead_Flax
I began with plain graphite, but clicked colour in error & let it be.
The stalks have been in wind, sun, rain, snow & sleet for about a year, they are dried & bleached and weathered greay in places. They will soon compost themselves.

#177 Manuka
I have been going about three months and have earlier Manuka sketches of the old seed heads, but now the new buds are out and some are in flower.
This is in faux pencil on faux moleskine and it looks best shrunk down in size… the power of digital manipulation!
