AEDM Day 9 ~Another Rumi

I found this site online that has these amazing quotes and I am stuck under "R" for Rumi...I just love his stuff. I ought to get serious and buy a book to use as reference. I try to be clever sometimes and it usually ends up backfiring on me but I'm a little too snarky to go full blown bewilderment, even though I know thats the place to be.

I am working alot these days and staying up late working, not feeling so good, then on to grumbling a little bit about everything....even this challenge! Gee I'm 9 days in and all pissy because I have to draw a bit.. But I have to remember that art is what I need to get through the tough days, lousy doctor visits and general wise ass-iness that comes in my life from all directions. Art's my tonic, the penicillin ... pretty bewildering I suppose ;)

AEDM Day 8

Like that old Queen song goes "It's late, it's late, it's late, but not too late" Bringing up the rear tonight. I am held back by sixth grade homework, ugh! Oh well , its all good:)) I should have got out the watercolors but I was too tired so I used my thin markers...I am fine with them but the colors could be better...always! Now that Queen song is in my head! I loved the band as a kid. My older cousins followed them and of course I listened to it too, due to them. I wish I had the chance to see them in concert. Whenever I hear Freddie Mercury I have to smile.

AEDM ~Day 7 - Cloudiness and Ropes of Rain

Coming in again late...oh well:)) I did this drawing originall on black board with white gel pen but it didn't looks so great to me, so I switched up the colors in Picnik. I put the black one down below too. Hope everyone is enjoying this challenge. I am having a great time checking out people's blogs as well as meeting up with others on Flickr. I went to Art(that Matters) tonight for our bi-monthly meeting. We're planning a show in December called "White on White" and all the artwork has to be done in white or slight variations of white with tints of colors. I have tried a few ideas but still having a think about it:) This is tough! But it will be fun. We're all getting involved with the hanging, planning, advertising, etc. They've even decided to serve white food at the opening, LOL! They stopped at dressing in all white.

AEDM Day 6 - Four Boys and a Girl

I am back at attempting another abstract painting. I worked on this all morning. I am rushing this post so I can get over to the soccer field! My son's last game of the season.
