Pink tears [WOYWW150]
Diana's tears are of the same colour as her favourite flowers.
Yesterday I was visiting one of my most enjoyable sites and read that this person's art was done using her non-dominant hand and that was like a firecracker under my behind. I jumped up, grabbed one of my arty type books that I rip apart to use for projects (it happened to be Romeo and Juliet) and a box of watercolors and some pencil crayons and I didn't move from the spot until I got this far in the drawing. It is enough to see what my non-dominant hand would produce. I like it. It's free and loose. I'll do more of this style in future.
Here's my work desk scene. I worked directly on top of my lap top. Not smart!
Today at Julia Dunnit's fabby blog she features every Wednesday, artists from all around the world who show what is on their work desk. Thanks for dropping by!
Be seeing you soon, I hope, *smiles* Norma

ReplyDeleteLike Hazel (above)days it is a great result, using the non-dominant hand. It works because you have a talent, alas I stick to stamps! Regards, Anne #30

That is such a wonderful experiment for painting and drawing types! How fun to let the other side of you express itself...Happy WOYWW #121
ReplyDeleteWow Norma, the things that speak to you artists! I would have appreciated the ther artists actions and not given it another thought, you're amazing. And I must also say...gracious you work well with your'non dominant'!!!
ReplyDeleteThe one discipline I do have..is not working on top of my laptop....but only because it's a tablet and I stand it up out of the way.! Let's face it, when you're moved to create, nothing can be in the way!!
What a great idea ... And a lovely freeing experience for you!
ReplyDeletewow cool that you can even draw lovely with your non dominant hand Gl its great to get inspiration from all sorts of things hey :)
