Happy Veteran’s Day to all Vets.

 

Thank you for your service.

The tag says: 

Thank you for the sacrifices you and your families are making.
Our Vietnam Veterans have taught us that no matter what our positions
may be on policy, as Americans and patriots, we must support all of our soldiers with our thoughts and our prayers. ~~ Zack Wamp

Today is also the 8th anniversary of my dad's death. He was a vet having served during WWII, stationed in France. Miss you dad!

Still drawing faces

 

I started out to draw a few sets of eyes; just eyes so I could get in some more practice but she wouldn’t sit still for just eyes.  She said all or nothing.  So the full face it was. Sometimes you just have to do what the muse wants to do. .

It’s Sunday

 

Spent the early part of the day harvesting veggies from the garden and boy did we get tons of eggplant, zucchini, butternut squash, and sweet potatoes. I see a roasted vegetable and quinoa salad in our future.

Then there is the new face.  What can I say, I like drawing faces.  This is is a little too dark around the hairline but I like it.  This one was started with ink because I was foolish enough to think I could join INKtober 31 (361 ink drawings in 31 days).  Well, I did join only to figure out it was over my head.  I’m not an ink person.  I like to erase too much.  In other words, there isn’t a first line that I like let alone love.

It ended up being a colored pencil drawing. 

What are/were you up to on Sunday?

Sadly 29 faces -September 2014 has ended

Here is my entire collection for the month.

I hope you enjoyed the challenge as much as I did.

Thank you for visiting. I really enjoyed your comments.

29 Faces #29

 

Yay! I did it! Drew 29 faces in 30 days. That was fun and I needed the practice. Believe it or not, I wish it wasn’t over yet….I need the push to create everyday and I love drawing faces.

Thanks to Martha of Ayala Art for once again hosting the September edition of the 29 Faces challenge.  It takes a lot work to pull the challenge off and she does it so well.

The drawing is 3’ wide.
