Parrot

 

Another day at school today and I had a few moments to sketch something at lunchtime. Greg Postle I aint thats for sure. This parrots eye is just plain evil...

Horse From Side

I really miss my horse.. I miss the freedom of riding around on hundreds of acres, feeling that oneness with a powerful creature.  I miss the wonderful times I spent with my sisters exploring, competing and laughing on horseback.

Still theres no value wishing for things that you cannot recapture. As attractive as it might sound, owning a horse in the city is practically impossible - stabling costs, traveling times - the pits..... no.. will have to wait till we move to the country.  You are never too old to ride... I'll take it up again then...

Female Form

 

I think I should go and do some life drawing classes.  Trying to pull dimensions and angles from ones head and images are starting to become limiting.

Horse Looking

 

I thought after yesterday sketch, I'd better do something a bit softer, butterflies?  humm dolphins .. gag....Horses and ponys.. now theres something I used to sketch alot...

The stuff of dreams

 

So why don't you sleep much Annie?

If this is what you expected to be met with every night, would you be keen to sleep? Its not even the images - but its the hot breath, the ripping noises, the sticky blood and very often the pain.

so no - I don't sleep much and when I do, I pray not to dream

Lone Dancer

I watched Morgan and Lilly at their dance classes yesterday - first lesson back.  Their teacher is so graceful, fluid, beauty itself when moving.  This is a quick sketch I did to capture a moment in class as she was demonstrating something.
