What I suggest for artists, is draw a random line and make something interesting from it. I thought such a thing would be challenging for myself. I also tried to keep it in black and white. The finally part of the task was not to use too much detail. Now, that was asking a bit much seeing that I studied so I could have the patience to use as much detail as I could; nevertheless, I tried to make it work.


After completing 9 altogether, I pinned them to my bulletin board to see if there was anything I could do not to destroy the integrity of what I was trying to do, but at the same time try to also make them interesting for the viewer. If I didn't like them, I couldn't put them on display for anyone else to view. I have so many other pieces that all grouped together in a drawer. Simply, they just didn't make the cut.


When I finished all 12, I had to add more to it. The answer was lipstick. Even them after adding the brightest red I could find contrasting brilliantly with the black and white, something else was needed. I just got a new micro liner and was eager to find out how well it ran and for how long. I began using the liner for background. While many other artists would have opted to photoshop the lining background, it was therapeutic to do each line myself. When I finished all 12, I was content.
Shortly all 12 can be purchased as a calendar or individually in my gallery. If interested in purchasing the original postcard sized pieces, email me.
