Finding My Way

“I have a map,” said the girl.

“And where exactly do you think you’re going?” exclaimed the old sailor.

“Oh the places I’ll go…as long as you are accompanied by a map, you could choose any destination,” she said, wistfully.

“Well, unless you get lost and to be honest some of us are directionally challenged,” he said and looked to the sea.

Singing In The Rain

“So—so-o c-cold,” Wrigley spat the words out stammering. He had been flying through the forest when the sky went dark and rumbled loudly. It was sunny just before with no warning of a coming storm. The deluge that followed was impossible to fly in. He wondered if he’d find a hollow before nightfall and hoped for a break in the rain.

Directionally Challenged

Long ago the giant’s blade fell from the sky. The sharp glinting metal carving paths all leading back to its gleaming edge. Most would avoid it if they realized what hand could wield the massive weapon.

Creepy Crawlies

“Look its moving…again.” Mr. Fluffers eyeballed the white thing in the corner. He kept his eyes glued to it until Mama Spider gave him a warning. In the next heartbeat, the fluffy cat nearly jumped out of his skin. Little did he know that white sack-like ball was filled with baby spiders.

Playing with foreshortening and different views.

Dream Fishing

He wondered if fishing like this near a black hole was such a good idea. The space fish shone brilliantly circling the crescent moon. He had placed the bait dangling off the base hoping to entice the beautiful shimmery beast. Every time he looked at it he tried to shield his eyes, squinting. The halo of light it was producing made him think of a dream.

These two look so dashing in their costumes. These portraits were a challenge to keep them tied as a pair and in determining some of those hidden details. Also as I continue yo learn drawing small isn’t as easy as drawing a larger format. Somehow, these two turned out beautifully. Do your pets wear costumes or accessories? Personally, when we had cats before finding out my husband’s allergies…ours hated any type of costume.

Do Dogs Smile?

My daughter wanted to do chalk drawings today after school. This guy emerged and I enjoyed being quick and loose with it. He won’t last long though as it started to rain on us. I think we need to get some more chalk, especially black. Where’s your favorite place to draw? #aleciagoodman, #pig, #cat, #sidewalk, #chalk, #bubbles, #bath
