Hello everyone!
A small rant before I get to my current favorite subject - Art 🎨
I've been publishing this blog since 2008, but I find that I've never experienced as many blogger issues as currently. Everything from not being able to comment on either my own or other Blogger blogs (thankfully, that's been resolved) to changes made within my blogposts not updating and pictures not uploading. Separate to that I've recently been informed by Google, that my domain, which I've had since 2013 has been migrated to a host outside Google/Blogger, so now I have to deal with that as well. It's so annoying! Ok, rant over.
I've really taken to sketching with crayons lately. I've written about sketching/drawing with NeoColor I crayons in a previous post. These crayons have a lot of pigment and a little goes a long way. I find that starting with a light application and adding layers works best. The images look a bit "fuzzy". This is because I am working on lightly grained paper, not smooth. I like a bit of texture in my drawings. Here are a few examples of my bird sketches - and a cat!
Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful rest of the week!

It’s so annoying what Google/Blogger is doing—fingers crossed that everything works out! I can understand your anger, but try not to get too upset—think of your health!
It looks beautiful—the way you paint with those wax crayons!!!!
A loving, comforting hug, Elke
Thank you, dear Elke!
Dear Duni, please don't let these ridiculous and annoying Blogger issues get to you, dear friend. I totally understand the frustration, because sometimes my new blog posts take up to an entire day before they appear in the Blogger news reader!!! Grrrrrr. I have resigned myself to just go with the flow and hope it appears either immediately or at the very least within an hour, but I am not going to let this affect my health. I know, easier said than done, I totally get it!
This is why on every single blog post now I tell my readers and followers when my next blog post will appear ON MY BLOG (forget the news reader). But I know when I schedule my posts so I can do this, but we can't all do it, and not only that, the more blogs we follow the harder it is to keep up. Sheesh! Blogger, please address these issues!
Now, to your incredible talent, dear Duni! I absolutely love all these pieces, they make me smile and bring me much joy...as do your posts and presence here!
Thank you so much for sharing, and I am sending you much love and a gentle hug from across the miles.
Blogger can be a real headache sometimes.
Your sketches are wonderful. Ilove them all
Thank you for your kind words, Linda, and thanks for the reminder not to let it get to my health. Appreciate it so much ♥
