How are you all coping with this mad weather? Hard to believe that Britain is almost at a stand still due to it, and one can only hope for a bit of respite and normality soon.
Thanks for all your recent comments appreciated as always, and as you can see above I have created some more stone bugs. I love doing these and find this sort of art/craft very relaxing and to keep it more interesting my cut wood rounds have arrived too, so will hope to show something new with those in the early part of next week. I do have a question to put to you my dear fellow readers and if I asked this before then please forgive me, the brain is not what it used to be in my youth ! When I set this blog up firstly I did so just for my pencil work/drawings etc hence the title "art with a pencil", but like most artists we tend to experiment try other media and explore. So my question is to you when you come to read this blog, does it irritate/ annoy you that the subject matter is not just pencil related anymore ? I have in the past separated my art into different categories via another blog, but as those were still pencil related I deleted those blogs and moved them back to here, but as painted stones/wood is quite different in style and media should I mix that up with the pencil stuff ?
Thanks to anyone who replies, your input is valued as I want to give all my readers/followers the best I can.
Just a quick note the photo is a tad blurred because I took it with my camera phone.
That's a good photo from a phone! How did you get the photo from phone to computer? I'm still trying to figure out the easiest way to do that. I enjoy reading everything you post! The rocks are so cute! My students would love those!
ReplyDeleteThey are so cute!
ReplyDeleteDoes it bug me its not just pencil? :)
Not at all - I love seeing all the creative things you do xx
No, it doesn't worry me ... I enjoy any art related posts
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas Vic - love the bugs!
Simpaticissime le tue cocinelle.
ReplyDeleteCiao Gabriella
Hi Vic, These little bugs are adorable. I find all the work you do fascinating, regardless of the medium. I am also guilty of chopping and changing, but haven't got the time to maintain more than one blog, and so I think people will pick out those entries that they find the most interesting and perhaps bypass the ones that they don't. I definitely don't find it annoying at all!!! Merry Christmas to you and all your loved ones Vic!!! :)
ReplyDeletei love seeing the different arts and crafts that people do. being an artist is all about experimenting, so seeing what other people are doing with their talent is great :)
ReplyDeletelovely stones again!
ReplyDeleteI don't mind that the subjects of your blog aren't pencil related any more. I find it fascinating to discover all other media's that artist use! It adds variety to your blog.
I for one am hopeless at using other media so I admire your skill :)
I agree...a variety is nice. You never know what people are interested in. And it seems most artistic people work in more than one medium. The cross-pollination that results from linking to many different types of artists is what builds the connections and brings new eyeballs back to your work.
ReplyDeletethe stones are so cute and whimsical :)
ReplyDeleteIt is find with me to see different kind of artwork in the same blog
What a brilliant idea. I always think of why people bought the pet rock ages ago, but this would make perfect sense. Gave me some ideas!!! Thanks for the inspiration!!!
