This is my illustration for this week's Illustration Friday word of inspiration ROCK.<br />
I
painted this using black & white acrylic paint mixed to create
various values. The fine lines were done with permanent marker.<br />
It is painted on Daler Rowney acrylic paper & is 5 inches x 5 inches in size. <br />
<br />
I've
been away for ages & it felt really rushed to get this done. I will
add colour to it sometime soon but I wanted to get this posted before the new inspirational word is introduced today. <br />
<br />
Photo taken with LGG3 phone...no scanner. I
placed a sheet of shatter proof glass (which I use as my palette) to
hold the piece flat. The texture on the glass is visible in the photo
but I kind of like the 'pixel-like' effect it gave.<br />
<br />
Thank you for visiting. Any comments or constructive criticism is always appreciated.<br />

This is my drawing for this weeks Illustration Friday topic 'Revenge'. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted to get something entered this week </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and I knew if I stuck to using pencil I would have a better chance </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of getting that accomplished.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was really fun to do this piece. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I added the text using Photoshop </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
which made it even easier to meet the deadline.</div>

My creation for the this weeks theme RED at Illustration Friday.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As much fun as this was to create I'm quickly realizing that it's easy for me to never stop. Participating in these weekly themed events which a call weekly 'challenges' have already taught me a lot.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The deadline pushes me to find a compromised finish in any way my limited abilities deem fit. I'm pushed outside of my comfort zone to reach a level of finish I could <u>begrudgingly</u> send of as my submission. This in turn forces me to resolve issues to reach this point. As much as I hate it ... it's really helping me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've also come to realize that instead of fretting over a mistake or mistakes .... get over it and fix them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once the fear of ruining it even more subsides and the fix has been accomplished it's easier to do it the next time(s).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The evolution of a piece is the most interesting to me. Here are a few stages of this piece.</div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The fun part for me is drawing. I just the feeling of pencil on paper. The painting part is a struggle.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It just continued to change as I worked along. Some things changed to resolve issues and others just happened.</div>

<span style="background-color: white;"><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I'm not colourblind. Really!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">My IF submission for GONE FISHING is posted under IF topic RED.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">The first post on my blog & my first time participating in Illustration Friday weekly challenge. Lots of firsts.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Regrettably the setting up of this blog in order to post my take on the topic & uploading my image to IF all for the first time ran my submission late. Boo me ... go ahead.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">It ended up being posted with the next IF topic titled RED. So to say it looks a bit out of place where it's posted would ...errr...be an understatement!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Anyway I did it and I sure hope they realize that it is actually done for the special March 14th topic GONE FISHING in honour of Thomas James' week off & not RED....or will I look colour blind.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">So here it is.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">"Thomas James has 'gone fishing' for a week off from his fast paced freelance life. That week off means a week off from a ringing cell phone". </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">I bet Thomas wishes he had his cell phone with him now!</span></div>
