This is just a view I would like to have from my mountain top home ..... when I win the lottery ............. or ............. my sketches become famous!
I created this on a paint program one day at work. You can definitely tell my mind was not on my work. I didn't get it finished. Dreams are never finished. They are just put away for that someday when there will be time................
Paint programs are not my medium. I prefer pencil and pastels. I sketch faces. I love old, wrinkled faces that have seen life. Young, pretty, smooth faces are like a blank canvas ... just waiting for someone to draw a mark ... to add knowledge and make a wrinkle ...
When the day comes that this dreamer has finally acquired a scanner, maybe I'll share some of my sketches with you. Between now and then, this dreamer had better practice or it will really just be a dream and never a reality. I have only a very few that I would put up right now and most of them unfinished.
Michael bought us a scanner some time ago, but I haven't practiced my drawing. I decided I would upload one of the sketches I did of John Wayne one night. I'm kinda proud of it. It was taken from a picture of him in "The Green Berets".
I guess I'll wait for retirement before I start drawing again. I am lost in searching for the ancestors now. That is a time consuming hobby.
Tell me something....I'm nosey!
