One morning as I was waiting for my french press to finish steeping...setting out my cup...with great anticipation, I might add... :) I realized my cup shared the year (kinda)...twenty-sixteen...16 ounces...I love little connections like this...so I snapped this pic (like you do...wink)...
Then one thing led to another and I was inspired to do this...
In case you can't tell...wink...this is a blind contour drawing of my cup...(blind as in NOT looking at the paper while you draw...I ONLY looked at the object, in this case the cup)...what I like about doing this drawing exercise is that there is absolutely NO PRESSURE...afterall, how good can it be if you aren't even looking? Right!!! :) PLUS, I feel like these little sketches have a wonky charm all their own...embrace your inner wonky! :) Oh, and I DID look when I did the star and lettering...just so you know.
Then following the prompt from DLP (Documented Life Project 2016), I created an ATC
(or PAC-Pocket Art Card)...
A little pen play...watercolor with my Tombow Dual-tip markers and water brush...a touch of foil and very quickly this little project came together...super fun!!!
I do hope that you make time nurture your creative self this year...
Happy New Year!!!
