This one’s different–the weird lighting makes it even more so (the top right isn’t actually yellow). I just wanted to draw some flowers, but I didn’t have any plan at all. Here’s where it sits, and now I wonder what to do. Is it done? It doesn’t really have a focus, the composition is so-so, I don’t know where I was heading with the background. Time for a break.
It happens pretty much every year. A few small sketches, maybe, but that’s about it for an entire month. As temperatures rise, my creativity slumps. Even so, I did mange a few ballpoint pen sketches, including this robin.
