Patterns,Lines,Doodles


Hi all,
No animal art to show today, instead something of an Abstract piece done in my sketch book. I have got to say doing work like this is a real passion for me and a creative release, I just love the idea of combining patterns, shapes, doodles, and curves to create funky abstract art. I use mostly black pigment pen and to add colour it will be CPs, Ink or Coloured gel pens, perhaps even watercolour. It is all still a bit experimental, but like the mandalas there is not too much pre planning that comes into it I just do what feels right. My plan is too fill my sketch book up with this type of art, as I think it will be fascinating to look back over it all in time, and who knows when I kick the bucket someone might find it interesting.
On a completely different track, I have for sometime now, been having some problems with my digestive system and have for the past few weeks had to make some changes to my meds,which in turn has played havoc with my arthritis. I went to the doctors yesterday for another review and am now having another change in meds, and worse still a change in diet. Now I am a gal who loves her food, and although I am not too overweight,(size16)I do tend to be a bit of a muncher as well, but I have got to calm that down and to my horror stop eating Curries ! In fact not just curry,tomato's,mayonnaise,acidic fruit,vinegar,chinese,garlic....anything spicy and acidic etc...instead it has to be plain old boring food. My appetite has dropped off since this started, I reckon it will end being nil having to stick to this diet, but thank god it is only for a month! On a more serious note, I want it sorted,because it does cause me some pain and is uncomfortable and if there is no improvement then it will be the tube down the throat.......oh joy !

What a nice idea to fill a whole book with these. I did one of those folded paper books and filled it with these.

Rulan said...

Dors said...

Beautifully done. I keep saying I will try one. Great job.

No curries ... OMG!!!!!
David (hubby) had the dreaded endoscopy a couple of years ago now following a holiday where he was in so much discomfort he simply stopped eating/drinking. The consultant prescribed Omeprazole. It has been a life changer for him - he can eat/drink anything. The tablets are now available over the counter I understand ... :o)

and I love your patterns - I quite like it without colour

Hi Vic,
I didn't realise you have been unwell sweetie.
I can sympathise because I too have digestive problems and can only ever eat bland due to a Perforated Duodenal Ulcer 20 years ago,and still suffering!
I hope you feel better soon Hun,and hope they can find decent meds to aid you.
Fantastic work by the way and you do have such an awesome talent..well done..love the idea of a whole pad of these.
