A day of painting
As planned, I spent the whole day painting in the studio.
In the past two weeks, I almost forgot how good it is to be in front of the canvas, creating, struggling, joyfully playing and making art.
I started with a pencil drawing of a figure in motion, but I added four upper bodies to the figure, in different stages of movement.
Last week while shopping in Kerikeri, I found in a second hand book store a wonderful book.
It is a great resource of images for me.
It is a large catalog filled with photographs of old toys. Most of them were made of tin and they are so innocent and sweet.
I drew some of the toys around the pencil figure and tomorrow I plan to start painting the toys in colors.
