feeling sketchy..

So here's something different for you Diane.

All I ever wanted to be as a child was an artist.

No one ever told me I couldn't

so unlike everybody else I never thought about

forging a career as a dentist or a doctor.

I have never been a fan of sketching 

because I don't have that natural talent.

The one thing aside from life drawing

that I remember from art college

was a visit from a brilliant artist who sketched every day....

 20~something years later and here I am.

Looking for inspiration I stumbled upon a whole new world

a world of sketchbook art..

google it if you dare!

So I started today.

I'm not sure of anything

I'm not sure where this will lead

I'm not sure what to sketch.

I'm not sure I can sketch.

Which is why I am also keeping a colour inspired book too,

for the pencil days that don't happen.

ps. cos theres always something I want to whisper
It's been a long time since I really evaluated my face for an artistic foray,
for now I'm leaving the wrinkles and jowls out.
I'm already giving the evil eye
and anyway I'm the one with the pencil!
