Random Drawings

Piirrän
mitä sattuu mieleen juolahtamaan,

kun:

                                                            kuvittelen 

              luonnostelen

                                                                     luen  

           tai näen ikkunan takana vihreän apinan

Summer drawings of random subjects

which I see, imagine or read about:)

As Times Go By

DC ( drawing challenge ) of this week is about traveling in time. 

I travel back..and forth.. 

The first five photos are from 70`s taken by my dad .

He was a photographer who loved misty early spring and late autumn views. 

In the middle there is one of my recent paintings, self portrait as John Lennon :) 

The ball hanging there is from my childhood. I am looking towards tomorrow, 

curious about the future but aware of the times gone by .

The five pics under the painting are my photos and a pastel of the same surroundings by the sea which my dad also loved and photographed.

  

See more Time Travelers via the lovely blog: Miss Herzfrisch.

Thank you, Sabine, for this fascinating theme! 

Happy week end everyone, I`ll be away by the sea and will be back on Sunday to visit your blogs, 

x Leena

Luonnostelua

 

 

Valokuvia matkani varrelta, piirroksia taidehistorian luennolta ja tekeillä oleva reliefi.

 Plastinen anatomia = tuskanhiki.
Croquis -piirtäminen (1-3 minuutin piirrokset, ylin kuva )

= herkku aamujen avaukseksi.

Viikonlopuksi kotiin reittiä Pori-Eurajoki - Vuojoen kartano - Rauma-Tampere.

Anatomy lessons = hard and difficult. 1-3 minutes croquis drawing = fun. 

I´ll try to balance in between frustration and enjoying..

Drove to Tampere via Pori and Eurajoki, Gylich Gallery.

DEAR FRIENDS, I´ll be celebrating the midsummer, nightless night, by the sea, see you on Sunday evening, have a nice weekend! x Leena

I smile when thinking of..

..the times the children were little:  the boys in 1989..
(this photo was taken by my Father )

...and the daughter in 1992.

..special moments in life..

..and I smile in spite of the troubles in life: with needles and pins

 Smokie, Needles and Pins
