Since I can’t post my current softie projects, I’ll post some of my drawings that are either complete or still being worked on for the next couple days. This one is just a random eye in a sea of swirls… when I drew it I was imagining a woman in a circus with beautiful paint on her face that accentuated all of her natural features.

When I use stippling for a drawing, I usually have no idea in my mind what it is going to turn out as. I just let the dots lead the pen. The few I’ve done that have been pre-determined are not my favorites. I like randomness and surprise when I draw. (This is why I would be horrible for commissioned work… if you want something specific, chances are I’ll draw it 25 times and hate every single draft). I’m too emotional with my drawing. Is there a thing as too emotional when it comes to art, though?

By the way, I just got the Ingrid Michaelson album from itunes and I am in love with her!! I highly recommend it. She sings about all the simple things we feel. It makes my so-called HUGE problems seem like nothing.. in a good way.
