Responding to Rutenberg: Limitations

ID#102 In Brian Rutenberg's Studio Visit #16, he begins the talk recounting some casual banter between friends over dinner one evening.  The subject was "limitations", which he says "Every artist has" and that he is continually inventorying his. I nearly fell out of my chair when I heard him say this, wondering what, if any, … Continue reading Responding to Rutenberg: Limitations

Responding to Rutenberg

ID #103 I've recently discovered an artist whose work and words I'm eating up these days.  To say that his paintings are delicious would be correct...the color, movement, and draw-you-in composings on canvas are breathtaking.  His words are equally inspiring. Brian Rutenberg lives and works in New York City.  His work is about as far … Continue reading Responding to Rutenberg

Man and His Cake

The Man might once have been a Boy... But you can't take the Boy out of the Man. Nor his cake! *drawings made from photos my oldest daughter took on the occasion of my husband's birthday!

The Tempest

Another "ride" in downtown France Kernersville.  Well, I didn't actually go on the ride.  Drawing it was fun enough for me! But I have a confession to make.  As I sat there drawing this and the other carnival rides, I realized that I had never been to my town's Spring Folly Festival.  Not once. Not … Continue reading The Tempest

Penciled Friends

For some strange reason, I was struck with a desire to draw with a pencil.  It's not my usual thing.  But I enjoyed it here, drawing some friends of ours at a cook-out. I have many pencils...graphite sticks, water-soluble graphite, wood-encased pencils, solid graphite pencils, grease pencils, charcoal pencils, color pencils, etc.  I love breaking … Continue reading Penciled Friends

Folly Time in K’ville!

I'm not sure whether this would be considered a typical site in France or not.  But here in Kernersville, we recently had our annual Spring Folly Festival.  When my fellow artist friend, Debbie, and I went to draw downtown, I was delighted to see folks setting up the rides in Harmon Park.  Color! Shape! Line! … Continue reading Folly Time in K’ville!

This One Makes Me Smile

Another Friday morning in "France"... 😉 aka. downtown Kernersville, I was on my own this particular day so I chose a view I might not have done had there been others with me.  This is looking into the courtyard of the Factory where the fountain is, the lamp posts and iron bridges, and the little … Continue reading This One Makes Me Smile
