Thought I’d go further into charcoaling

I apologise if you’re bored of these but I’m obsessed

Still charcoaling

Don’t know what to do next to be honest 😂

Mo charcoaling and I’ve completed my 100 day project

Couldn’t find my charcoal for a bit there…

Found it now

Doodling

Life is getting in the way right now but slowly getting back to normal

Morning charcoals

Random fish and sunshine on a sunnyish day

To brighten up what has been an unusually overcast day I got a wonderful message from Dragon warrior07987. Thank you so much for the nomination, you have really made me smile. Their creative writing blog is beautifully written, check it out here https://verbalcreation.home.blog/

The rules and questions for the sunshine award were:

The Rules:
Thank the blogger who nominated you.
Answer the 11 questions the blogger asked you.
Nominate new blogs to receive the award and write them 11 new questions.
List the rules and display the Sunshine Blogger Award in your post/or on your blog.
Notify the nominees about it by commenting on one of their blog posts.

Here are my questions:
1. How would you describe art?
2. When did you first start blogging?
3. Who is your inspiration?
4. Do you like to build worlds or characters with your brush?
5. What makes you most happy?
6. Are you an extrovert or introvert?
7. If you could use the time machine where would you go?
8. Your favourite artist/ author/ poet/ creative piece?
9. Do you watch anime?
10. If you could do anything without bothering about time or money, what would it be?
11. Your dream place?

Here’s my answers:
1. Expression and celebrating life
2. About 18 months ago
3. Tons of people inspire me: the oatmeal, Steve Huston, Annie Stegg, the list is endless
4. I love to build characters and worlds! My favourite thing about art is that you really have the power to create what doesn’t exist already. If I want to make a llama doing hang gliding while dressed up in a cleopatra outfit and eating an ice cream sundae, I can 😀
5. People enjoying my work. Every little like and comment gives me a lift
6. An introvert for the most part, I’m quite happy painting my merry way through the day
7. I would probably go back to when dinosaurs roamed the earth then return briskly to my time machine as I realised that they were enormous meat grinders with legs
8. My favourite author has to be Ray Bradbury but it’s quite likely that this will change. I’m fickle and I read a lot
9. I do
10. I would paint and draw and generally make a mess of the house in the name of creativity
11. An isolated cabin with a huge plot of land where my dogs could run around with breaking stuff while I painted all day

I will make up my own list of nominees and post them later (I’m not that organised and I haven’t decided on everyone I want to nominate yet).
