Leopard eye

 


So finally I've finished the leopard eye from Bonny Snowdon Academy Ignite

I've found every hair and shadow a challenge but I'm proud of the result.

I'm proud of the fact that I managed to find time and motivation to pick up my pencils today. Thank you to my friends Tomo, Susan, Elaine  and Barbara for encouraging me to pick up the ice axe and getting further up Everest! 

Climbing Everest


 I'm finding it  very hard to get myself motivated to draw at all; in fact motivating myself to do anything at all. I'm just lethargic and heavy and foggy..... well not 'just' actually it's a big deal and debilitating.

I'm going to try to do an online tutorial from Ignite today....... it feels like climbing everest !

Do any of you feel the same about life ? This hot weather doesn't help me either. Every effort is a huge one and takes it all out of me though I will try to pick up a pencil today.

What's been happening

 Hello there and welcome to Art By Dawniy 

I've been on an adventure with the help of my husband, all around WordPress dot com and back to blogger again! I'm finding WordPress a little complicated or even convoluted; it has had both of us scratching our heads on many occasion; so we've find our way back to blogspot which is easier to use than ever and even easier thanks to the help of my dearest.

Here are some of my pictures I've done since I was last on here, it's easy to see them here in a row ..... there are however hours and hours of work , focus, relaxing, cathartic loveliness. 

I enjoy every second of my pencil time xx
