This scene isn’t my first ‘Beach’ inspired drawing for this week. I will say this I am really enjoying my iPad more and more with each piece of artwork I complete on it. The confidence I’ve gotten with my ability in the past year is exponential. The key word being ‘confidence’. I still have room to grow but that’s the point of stretching and testing my skills.
My first pencil drawing to tackle was this beach scene I call, Naugty on the Beach.
Celebrating my new blog design, naturally, I found inspiration from Edward D’Ancona’s vintage pinup girl painting and did a copy-cat version. Trust me there’s no real comparison between the two only a vague similarity.
It looks like I got carried away again. In the spirit of fun and thanks to our hostess, I’m inspired to illustrate cartoons which bring me to my final two art pieces.
I used an image I found online to doodle the Looney Tune beach bums from which got the wheels turning in my head when I came up with my drawing. I did not see the below picture as an example but I based my Lola Bunny pinup after D’Ancona’s artwork like above. 🙂
All of my pencil drawings definitely need color but I’m not sure if I’ll get a chance to share the colorized versions anytime soon. You can bank on it when I do get around to publishing them, you’ll know about it.
Thanks for stopping in with your coffee for a peek at my masterpiece and …oh yeah for not spilling it on my artwork. lol It’s been a super pleasure to share my sprinkle of talent I have with you this morning. 😘 If you like to see what others are bringing to the art play date, then I invite you to high tail it over to Rain’s Garden to browse through the gallery of artistry!
Let me give you the heads up on my summertime schedule. Due to cyberspace sluggish behavior and my enormous need for downtime beginning July 1st I’m taking a semi-break in blogging contributing only once a week to co-host Monday’s Mewsic Moves Me. In the past, I’ve been known to slide in my purrsuit to enjoy my time away by slipping in an unplanned post (don’t be surprised) but my normal blogging routine I plan to resume after Labor Day weekend, so mark your calendar. 😉
I’ll be back tomorrow with an edition of Friday Fun Stuff chockful of giggles, fill-ins, & more! Come join the fun!
