Is it though, I mean of course there is consistency in the regularity with which I am making art but is the art consistent? Is there a cohesion between the things I make every day?
In some there is and in some there isn’t, maybe it doesn’t even look like I made it. I think this often happens when I am following an instruction from a class or a tutorial. I am trying to get the technique right so I wonder if I miss my own style for a beat or two while I learn something new?
Or do we maintain our style and cohesion even when learning something new?
Looking through these pieces, I see a style (I think) in most of them, but I think where it wanders off is in the flowers and I wonder if this is because I am following instructions for this class and I am learning lots of new things which haven’t got my stamp on them yet.
These watery ladies are new to me and inspired by Jane Davenport’s new book Fabulous Figures. I want to practice them more and develop my own ladies.
I am trying to sketch more so I did these in my little Moleskine Art Plus sketchbook while I waited at the hairdressers.
The colour swatches are part of one of my 365 projects, don’t worry, the skull mentioned was plastic!
Looking at this mini collection of art through a week, I wonder what a week of using the same colour palette would look like or a week of working on the same paper or using the same medium?
Do you make art? Have you spotted your style? Did you develop it or let it evolve?
