sketchbook, sketchbook, sketchbook...

Day 21c


Day 21 a 


Day 21 b 

I have just decided today not to stress too much with this 'finishing a sketchbook in 30 days ' .... I didn't count my pages before I started :)) I somehow thought , that I would do fine with one sketch a day ! So that is how I started . Later on I realised, that the book has 60 ( 60 !!!) pages , so now to finish it in my own challenge, I have to do 3 a day ( and I still have one day rest if I want ...) Is all this counting not contra creative ? If you just paint because 'you have to finish the job ' not a secure thing to fail in the painting ? Though... I like the saying that
 ' inspiration for the artist is a luxury , you have to work for the inspiration ' 
well... I will still try my best :)

  1. Sobald es Zwang wird, ist ja auch die Freude weg, oder? Lass es einfach so weiter fliessen - so wirkt es jedenfalls. Ich mag am Skizzenbuch, dass es mich immer weitertreibt auf die nächste Seite.

  3. I LOVE your sketches, they are so amazing, full of mystery, strength, and earth power and honesty. I just discovered you, but added you on my blogroll, and will visit you often to see what else you create.

  6. Just happened upon your blog and sketchbook - beautiful and inspiring - and so agree; sometimes one can over-challenge oneself and the fire dies to a spark rather than a bright and living flame. With all good wishes.
