1. Provencal Olive Oil Can

56OliveOilCan

When lacking in inspiration, just look for what you normally take for granted around the home and you'll eventually find something to draw. Found this metal olive oil 'can' in the kitchen. Decided that it needed a bit of 'brightening up so I played around some and came up with this:

Yes, that's a photo I took of a crumpled but clean tea towel. Not sure of how 'good' the end result is, but as long as the learning process is fun the final result just never seems that disappointing, wouldn't you agree?

It's Sunday so am going to take a day off work and relax and flip through magazines and cruise the airwaves for art sites, searching for the elusive switch that will turn the "Ideas" light bulb on as it's not been powered up recently. At least my home is getting a good cleaning -- procrastination comes in useful for one thing if not another. Cheers!

2. A Floating Provencal Sunflower

40FloatingSunflower

I bought a bunch of sunflowers from the markets the other day, they are so wonderfully cheerful. It's also the first time in my life that I've seen fields absolutely full of sunflowers, a sea of bobbing yellows and oranges capturing the joys of the day, I love it.

Am not so crazy about the drawing though, I'm not quite sure why but it seems pale in comparison to the real thing. I haven't captured the vibrancy and am a bit disappointed -- maybe next time ...
