babushka love

Part of my ongoing love for babushka dolls. Looking into techniques of shaping wood so I can make my own set.

So it would seem that my view of Cooma has changed for these holidays.

Quiet & relaxing? Kind of.

So dull and boring that I want to chew my own arm off for some excitement? Kind of.

BDO ticket and a shiny new iMac arrived in the post for me this week. God Bless you mr mailman, you're probably the best part of Cooma right now.

Weekend to do list:

* Put up christmas tree before christmas is over

* Work on the new watercolour portrait I started, I fear it will turn out a massive failure so no promises that it will make an appearance on here

* Vamp this blog... poor, neglected blog.

"Never cry on your own, never cry

But when you cry

Just try and find some perfect stranger with the tissue shoulders on"

Lyrics: Tissue Shoulders by The Maccabees. The album that this song comes from, Colour It In, has been on repeat for a few days now.

So this picture was meant to resemble an old politician that I saw a picture of in last weeks SMH... Subconcsiously, I ended up drawing a man that resembled Harold Bishop off neighbours moreso than the politician... I'm still deciding if I should be very afraid or very impressed... I'm going with a little from column a, a little from column b.

Not too fussed on this girl, but I thought maybe she would grow on me. Drawing edited in paint shop pro.

Pretty lady... pity she looks sad

So it begins.

Trying to develop my own drawing style. Attempt #1.
