Pens, Jewelry boxes, Eyeglasses & Bananas
I started off creating still lifes..... Of anything. I decided to use everyday objects. Pens.
At the beginning I felt like I was taking baby steps. Like my hand almost forgot what to do. Silly, isn't it? But that's how I felt.
After the first study I decided to place a bunch of pens in the glass jar. The drawing took me to a place that I haven't been in a long time. The zone, the drawing zone!
I'm so concentrated on the objects in front of me, in my hand movement, then I forget all my problems for a few moments.
And of course I keep the best for last. What every art student has to go through. I guess our right of passage…….. To draw your hand holding a pen!
As the saying goes, it's exactly like riding a bike again. You get back on and you ride your bike as if you have never forgotten. Unfortunately, I never learned how to ride a bike..... Ha Ha!
