Elephant walking me back in time

Elephant walking me back in time

It was my second year in college and I was taking a new drawing class.

On the first day pencil in hand, eraser waiting in the wings ready to wipe my mistakes from my paper.Wouldn't it be great if life was like that.

Oops do over! But in life  and the Cher song you can't turn back time or can you erase what you did.

So I sat eagerly awaiting my new teacher and the magic of the art of drawing I was sure to learn.

Making a wave

Making a wave
I stay up late often to paint; Alone in my studio, with the music too loud for the darkness outside, I work until the wee hours of the morning and panic as the soft light streams in. Then drawn to it like the many moths I  find in the woods to the  light outside my door, not able to resist.

Art that sets the stage

Art that sets the stage

The dream painting in a room

What are you in the mood for, and does it match the wall?

Does it realty matter?

Yes and no.

Art can help set the mood, it can save you from a bad day if you let it.

Raven magic

by JoAnne Helfert Sullam
Raven magic
I had a friend named Dante. We worked together and sometimes we would  just hang out together and he would pose for me for a drawing and even a sculpture that I never finished. He seemed to like it and would examine the art as if he was an art critic.
