homework



 Finally, I'm starting drawing class.  It turns out all I can draw now is chickens. 

The homework was supposed to be basic shapes, but that got dull really fast. So I bought an onion.

Lady in charcoal


 I really like how this one turned out.

apparently, I wear jewelry now

 I've been interested in adornments.  Things we wear or do to our bodies that really aren't needed but somehow are.  Like a shiny sparkle of metal or colourful fingernails.  

I stopped wearing even a wrist watch when I found out that it could easily get caught on a ram and as the ram weighs almost four times my weight, and we are now both attached to the wrist watch... um... health and safety.

Eventually I found out I could wear a pocket watch and this would easily come unattached from me, if something got attached to it.  

Looking around lately, I wondered what else could I wear.  Brooches.

Here's my starting collection.  It's not much, but I love it.

spring has sprung, the grass is ris...


 This one is my favourite so far.  In the background, I'm using the leftover ink that I spilled when I couldn't get the stupid lid off the ink bottle.

A bit of nature journaling



 

Okay, so the thing is about spring.  Lots of fruit trees are in flower.  And for once, I wanted to figure out how they are different.  So I started a bit of nature journaling.

These next few are in Kuratake Gansai Tambi Japanese style watercolours
