New: Creative Challenge from a Poem By Elena Malec

BOLERO

Elena Malec, California 1997

No one in the living room.
The cat went out to spy the moon.
Ravel is filling the air.
On a tray a Royal Riviera pear

waves kisses
to a Chabaud mixture bouquet.
It's time for the perfumes ballet

-in white, red, shades of pink tutu,
carnations do pirouettes to woo

this sublime fruit of France;

the air can feel their dance.
Blushing, the pear gives them a glance -
inflamed buds embrace it in a spicy fragrance.

The living room is floating on air.
Imagine, a cultivated vegetal love affair.

Still life with flowers and pear?!

Challenge - Lighthouse in CP

Another catch-up drawing in Drawspace.

Drawspace Challenge - Pigeon

I've been trying to catch up on the challenges in Drawspace as I have been gone or busy these past few weeks.

Older drawings

Rachel

Rachel is a very, very sweet young lady who attends my church. She just graduated from high school and I drew this for a keepsake.

Bart

What are you doing in there?

Art Cards - the rest

These are the last 6 of the art cards that I did for the Drawspace Exchange. They have all received them at this point so I can now post them.

Playing

This was a fun challenge (well, sort of challenge).. I drew this flower with each hand, one with the left and one with the right. I am right handed. I spent the same amount of time on each so that I could see the difference between the two. It is obvious which is my dominant hand but I didn't think the left handed drawing was too bad.

Mother and Son

These are two commissioned drawings. The Mother asked me to do them for her husband for Father's Day. I will actually have them completed! : )

Commissioned work

This piece was a commission that I finished last year. The person who commissioned it now has two more drawings she wants me to do - one of which I will post next. The other I still need to get busy on - right now! :)

Luminaries

My daughter always has me decorate all of the luminaries that she sells for the Relay for Life. Of course, many of them are bought by family including my husband and my daughter. It is always fun to decorate them.

Another challenge

I really enjoyed drawing this one - I cropped the original picture and worked only with pencil.
