Shout out to Amalia K at 'Translucent Blue'


hi everyone ~ here is my latest piece. I cannot share this lovely lady without admitting to you all that I am guilty of blatant and ardent art envy and copying!
Thats right!

Amalia K
, whom most of you know (and if you don't you must head over to her place and feast on her incredible art and wonderfully insightful posts) is the inspiration for this latest piece.

Amalia
has produced some incredible geisha pieces in the past couple of weeks, and I am IN LOVE with them!
I am especially amazed at how she renders hair (as you know, I love to get creative with my gals hair:-) ~ So for this piece I really studied how Amalia used shading to separate each strand of hair.

I love how my gal turned out, and hopefully you, Amalia, will see this for what it is:
My humble attempt to imitate and pay tribute to, even a little, your incredible art.


Please, if you have not aquainted yourselves with Amalia's breathtaking art, head over and let her know what you think. I just know you will become as attached to her blog and art as I am!


Smiles and hugs and do, please, let me know your thoughts, as I love to read your comments!

A new piece from my Daughter Amira


Hi Everyone,
This is a fabulous new piece by my daughter Amira who is 11 years old. She is a really talented artist in her own right, and does some great thing with colored pencils as you can see. She has been wanting to join me for Sunday sketches, so next Sunday I will be posting a piece from me and one from her!
I am so excited to share her amazing talent.
Let us know what you all think.
Smiles and hope you are having a great day!

Happy Sunday Sketches all!






I tried something new this week - I have to admit I am so enamored of all the big-eyed girl art out there. For all of you who specialize in this type of picture, I just love them all.



So this is my attempt at a couple of Big-Eyed Girls - I am a little disappointed, because they just really doesn't do too much for me...maybe this is just not my genre. I'm kinda surprised because as I said I just love all of this type of art that I see on so many blogs...




Well I proved I can imitate all of you great wonderful artists out there to some extent. Hopefully if you think it looks a little like your work, you will be flattered and not annoyed:-)


You can find more fabulous Sunday Sketches at Sophia's place http://bluechairdiary.blogspot.com/






Off to visit all of the other wonderful sketches!

Sunny Sunday Smiles to you all!
