Sketching Angels

So, I have been sketching. I’m not sure it counts since it’s the same sketch over and over again. But here we are.

Remember this angel from last week (the page that inspired that will come in a few weeks, it’s in my weeklong journal):

I did that with the brown pencil and wanted to see how it would look with the black one:

then I did it again with graphite:

and here they are next to each other:

and then I made another one inside an old book:

then I went and bought a larger sized moleskine book cause I decided I liked large. So I bought a plain one (not watercolor) and made another angel in pencil:

then in the black marks all pencil:

and then made another one today:

and colored it lightly:

And there we are. Angels everywhere.

  • Oh, Karen your girls are adorable, so dainty. Me, I’m still embracing lots of imperfection when it comes to faces, and that’s ok. šŸ™‚

    I like the angel done in black pencil best AND the last one, that
    you colored slightly, is beautiful!! The eyes show expression. You’ve
    got it girl! Not being an artist, expression would seem to me to be the
    most difficult. And without expression it would be a “flat picture.”
