'Artists can colour the sky red because they know it's blue. Those of us who aren't artists must colour things the way they really are, or people might think we're stupid.' -Jules Feiffer
I am so proud of myself for completing my colour week (even though I started on the wrong day of the week, completely arse ways..) It feels lovely to make a full circle. The challenge has made me use my camera so much around the house, digging through things to find my colours, clicking away like a mad woman, racking up hundreds of photos of all the shades.
It makes for a bright portfolio, a range of colour. I definitely want to keep it up-but I think I'll alter it a bit..

gosh I love that amazing mind of yours……
that was me…..your biggest fan….well, besides your momma..i bet she wins!!
LOL Artists never actually finish their work, I think, I know I tweak stuff til it's not what I want it to be anymore, so then I just start all over again.
Molly, that actually makes me feel so much better-because seriously? I never finish a thing…
I get in the mood to start something generally at an ungodly hour-begin work, and must must must have all of the materials and such, and not be interrupted until it is complete-or it will sit, collecting dust.
Also-I need to learn the science behind when to continue (shading, adding, whatever) and when to stop stop STOP! YOU'VE GONE TOO FAR AND RUINED IT NOW!!!
a fine line, an incredible balance… paaah!
