Week 3 of 2017

So I was still down with the cold for the first few days of the week, and worked from home as much as I could, for my own comfort as well as my coworkers... This means that not a lot got done until around Thursday, lol.

Still managed two workouts, and beneath the cut is this week's sketchbook painting, inspired by heartofoshun's suggestion of doing a

OMG I didn't know you were such a talented artist as well! I love it!

Oh, my! It is terrific. So imaginative. I love the color scheme and flow of the whole piece. Lovely! Thanks for sharing. She's right. You are really good and always growing.

Thank you so much for the suggestion! It really got me thinking, and I had fun. :D

And also thank you for saying such wonderful things and being such a great support.

Wow! I love this! You are setting quite the high bar for yourself with your weekly work.

The act of theft--the justice of it--committed with such lightness and grace: this work is not only beautiful but such a meaningful reinterpretation of a familiar tale.

Thank you!! Yes to the high bar, and I certainly think there will be weeks when it does not look this finished! But I also think that this was why the daily drawing wasn't working for me, unless I had a bigger project to work on little by little. Those unfinished sketches that were not contributing to something else, did not motivate me.

The size of the sketchbook and the 7 days to come up with something and paint it, seems to be a good combination so far.

Btw, I also got a nice sense of justice by allowing a strong, athletic woman to steal that stupid pea! :D

The work itself is simply beautiful and awesomely done, but I really do love the idea you've had for this. Great job!

Thank you so much. :) It was a fun task to work on, and I'm glad you are enjoying it too.
