I still grab my pencils on occasions when the urge strikes. Nothing like that smell!

Beautiful drawing Leanne, you are a true artist! :clapping:

I watch your blog every day and have been hoping you’d do some more cats. Did you take that fabulous reference photo too?

You are the last person I would have guessed would have self-confidence issues with your art. The state of fear you describe often keeps me paralyzed when I should be painting. But you are right about what happens if you go for it.

Have also been inspired by your weight watchers adventure- I have lost 23lbs- 7 more to go (over months not weeks).

Thanks so much for sharing!

You did a wonderful job, Leanne. Isn’t it something how God gives human beings the ability to create, which is…divine!

When I use colored pencil, I’m a prismacolor girl. my ground of choice is Canson Mi-Teintes as the dimpled paper stock allows some really great texturing and depth with pencils.

I’m grateful to be able to offer web, blog and graphic design work in addition to commissioned artwork – it keeps me busy and indeed, sometimes I need a power outage to sit and enjoy getting back to the basics! 🙂

I do almost exclusively graphite. A lot of people really prefer black and white because it’s so classic. I prefer pencil to work with, because it’s so forgiving! I get intimidated by colored pencil because I can’t erase it, except Verithins, but that lack the exceptional color that Prismacolors have. Maybe you can recommend something to me.

I like the new look of your blog.

I know what you mean about tearing yourself away from the computer. I often turn it off because it’s too much temptation to ‘just check email’ but the computer can be such a time sucking machine! And if you do your own site and blog like I do, there is always something to be done online.

Gorgeous, by the way!
