I would like to see this exhibition in San Diego but I will stay here and snowshoe. :-)
Have a good weekend!

Moosewoman & the Colonizers… Was somebody looking for the name of a band?
You might have recognized the drawing above; it started as a painted pebble. I felt compelled to draw that character again. I am not sure how to complete it yet. Three quick tests were done (the circles) to see how the blue bubble could end up like. Still thinking about it…
What would you do?
I should rename this blog “Finds from the forest”. I walk a lot in these woods, so much that one of my snowshoes gave away on Saturday. The other one does not have much longer. And well, they were 14 years old! It might have helped a bit.

I really like to take a peak at the street life of Barcelona.
Inside a Russian rocket plant (via Juxtapoz) brrrr!
Are those two different atmospheres…
Have a good weekend!
Another drawing that started as a texture test on a scrap piece of paper but turned out interesting.

Still using colour, but toned down.
I think I needed to make a bold move to bring in some chromatic scale in my work.
It has been a long time since I felt I was on the right track: the last time I got this impression was when I tried the inkblots. Now, there is the mix of human and animal that I really like to explore plus it includes my beloved black with the added touch of colour to make it pop…
I have been spending much more time drawing these past few days, it is a good sign!
Also, pRiyA’s book “My Shishu Stories from a children’s home and school” is finished. The kid’s paintings are stunning and touching. I especially like the portrait of Hella Mundhra, founder of the school.

All of these funky colours are way out of my comfort zone; Mrs Black & White went crazy!
It was definitely fun though…
Wild turkey tracks
I am trying to find a new rhythm. From now on, I will be posting on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Acrylic on paper
These started as texture tests on damaged pieces of paper. I liked the way they came out and finally spent an afternoon playing around with the shapes.
Something I made a few years ago… If you want to see the animated Christmas Fly, click here!
I wish you all Happy Holidays and a wonderful and creative year 2012!

Annie Musselman‘s beautiful photos made me want to draw ravens. I also promised a friend I would paint her a crow for last spring… You will tell me that I am kind of late in keeping that promise (I sure am!). The thing is I just could not create something that was worth offering. Still not there yet, but I am slowly getting more comfortable with the brushes. With a bit of luck and above all, a lot of practice, my very patient friend will have her crow for next spring!
