Female Portrait Drawing, Otherwise

I've been working on this video since August.   Interruptions and life changes happened and finishing it was postponed.  I used archival ink pens and watercolor for the female portrait drawing.



I hope everyone had a good weekend.  I've been absent from my blog for a while, but I hope to be posting more often.

I'm joining Sophia's Sunday Sketch blog hop.  Visit her blog to join and view everyone's lovely sketches.

The first part includes my music with a mac garageband loop in the background.  Music for second and third parts was done by me. The poem is by Jane Kenyon.

Very moving video, sketch, music and poem, Juana... it all really ripples across the heartstrings. I've long loved the poetry of Jane Kenyon...it was so sad when she passed. And I know you much still be in a fragile place...But so good to see you back here and your work. :o) Thinking of you ((HUGS))

bird watching and staying home for the summer

Married Shadows

My husband and I haven't had a T.V. for the last 15 years, maybe more, so we often go to see movies at the Cinema. The last couple of ones that I've enjoyed have been Transformers II and Terminator IV. Two more of my favorites are Slumdog Millionare and Milk. These latter two were well done movies from all angles (acting, script, cinematography). This is us after an afternoon at the movies and eating out. We had just come from Starbucks and were heading to the train station. For more shadow shots and to learn how to join this Meme, please visit Hey Harriet's blog .
