Art Interrupted

Today’s plan went out the window. I was happily bobbing along, working to plan, when I got a message that the vintage bookcase we bought at the weekend was going to be delivered.

It was bought, paid for, and labelled Sold, but we weren’t expecting them to deliver for a while because they usually wait until they have a full van load, which is all good.

Anyway, they were able to deliver the bookcase today, so I abandoned the art-making at the warm-up stage to get things ready. After it was delivered, well, it’s a bookcase and I’m a person with a bookstack that’s apparently taller than the Statue of Liberty according to LibraryThing, so books had to be moved and whatnot.

The good news is that I moved a shelf of books to make room for all my art markers in my studio, so they are much more likely to be used now.

The warm-up art above is blind contour drawings on an A1 sheet of paper. Just looking in the mirror, not at the page, and drawing myself. Then I started adding mixed media layers, and as you can see it’s all in a very unresolved state.

Til the morn,

Suzanne
