My World

Image
  GREG IS MY WORLD My physical life is incredibly tormented and empty. This is how I describe it:  My life is at best a whirlwind of disconnected fragments, Jangled together in an unpredictable nightmare That traps me in the centre of a storm I could not see coming  and have no idea how to stop. Or escape from, Completely beyond my control I am at the mercy of a pattern I can barely grasp Or cling on to.” Yet here too Greg stays and loves me, we build a life together, trying to rise above it or just be in it, in all its chaos. I drew this picture on the computer. It is incredibly hard work to draw with one finger, a huge effort. I added some words to try and convey some of the beauty that he exudes to me and the world.

Returning to human portrait

  Having drawn so many dogs and paid more attention to the fine detail that really brings them to life, it has given me more confidence to work on improving my portrait skills. I am delighted with this picture of my husband which I did using one finger on my iPad. However I am trying to regain my physical control and coordination to draw in pastel since a face operation affected my sight and hand. So I hope to be able to do, at least, simple pastel drawings again.
