Sunday Sketches


Hello and thank you for joining us once again here at Sunday Sketches!

I've actually been quite busy this past week (alot of transitioning going on) but managed to throw a few things to paper for this week - this is one of them.  One thing I'd like to "master" is creating/painting anything that is glass.  I still get too much blue in the mix.  Grr.  :D  Hee

Anyway, I do hope that everyone is having a great weekend.  There's a lot of snow here, so I'm staying tucked away inside where it's warm and cozy!

Grab the Sunday Sketches button here.

    Nice tea sketch! I do get that it's glass, maybe just the bluish kind!

    I remember painting glass for art homework at school. I don't think I've attempted it since! Brave girl :)

    I adore your teddies by the way - I want to cuddle them!

    I am so happy, bouncy to have something to offer for Sunday Sketches this week. It has been so long since I've arted. I am excited :D

    Thank you as always for hosting this. You have inspired several of my better works just by holding this motivational challenge every week. Thank you so much.

    And yes, glass is a fascinating subject to draw. As is water.

    Hello! Is it ok if I show my illustrations rather than sketches every Saturday/Sunday? I wanted to go above and beyond with my works.

    Your illustrations always make me smile. And I know what you mean about the glass. I can't seem to get it right now matter how hard I try. :-)

    Stay warm!!

    I think that your style is changing slightly and I like it.
    Last night it snowed quite a lot here so we are staying indoors too.
    Keep warm Sophia. XXXX

    I know what you mean about painting realistic looking glass - I fail miserably at it. =)
    But - I do love this painting - it strikes very close to me in terms of the subject, I am an loyal tea drinker myself. ;)

    As always - Blessings Sophia!
