Colored Pencil Journal Page - vintage & polka dots



The next Journal page, I'm still interested in pretty girls.
With BIG SKIRTS.
Then the White Space
screamed at me . . .
and out came the ballpoint pens.

I tried drawing pretty things to go with the pretty girls.
Beach balls for the polka dot skirt.
Poodle dog and cat for the vintage skirt.
But - conceptually - my mind is not filled with pretty things.
It is more fun to draw creatures and things that are not quite human or natural.


I've been asked if I was angry.
I've been told I should draw things that  people likje to look at -
 barns and flowers and puppies.
I just don't want to do that anymore.
 The photographers do a fabulous job at that, they can have it.
I'm not angry.
 This stuff is more fun and interesting.
Make-believe.
Fantasy.
Whimsical.
