Hayley Motivated Me

Well Hayley motivated me to draw my own eye...actually this kinda looks like Hayley's eye when she was little.

Spoookeeee!

A little photoshop when you don't have a black enough pencil

Yesterday I decided that I wasn't going to let Hayley outeyeball me.  So I was gonna get up this morning and draw. My Christmas garlands are finally put away and my vacuum cleaner has been on the floor for a week...but my goal was to draw.  So I got out my sketch pads and" no pencils".  Not a pencil to be found. An art pencil that is....I ripped apart my computer room as when it was renovated, I must have put all my pencils in a place I can't remember.  Why would I have put them with all the other art supplies??? This could definitely be a prelude to a migraine with really good visionary problems. Nope...my pencil case with all my pencils is no where to be found.  So much for the artistic moment.

. I had to get dressed and go to Michal's and buy a damn pencil set, with eraser and sharpener.   Why would this be easy? So now I'm set with my new Italian CD collection and am beginning my sketch.  It's great to draw with music until the CD player skips an hundred bloody times....just enough to wreck the mood I have rebuilt since morning. I had to get another CD player upstairs to get this show on the road.  Now I'm set. Once the art pad was opened I had a pretty good flow. I actually couldn't believe how easy this fell into place.  After all.....l I haven't painted an eyeball for many, many years.  I so much enjoyed this little challenge that I just might do another one.

 Who'da thougth that Hayley would be the one to get me out of a lazy, uncreative slump in one long sufferable, shitty winter?
