Brass Topped Table

 This is one of the center tables in our house.

 To capture it in my sketchpad means to capture it in my memory as well.

As I draw, I told Lui about the events where this table was part of.

And the memories make this table special.

Fruits!

I love fruits and I have them every day!

So I made a drawing of my bananas:

. . . and placed some apples on the bowl

and decorated my table with all the fruits I like . . .

and framed them on the window in the house

to create a new study for my painting next week:

Lamp and Flowers!

 These objects are found in the corner of the Dining Area where I draw.

And here is my interpretation of it:

Gifts!

 I received special gifts this week. 

A cross pendant from a Bishop, 

a cat measuring tape from my sister Amce, 

and a cute key holder from my brother Ricky.

So I asked Lui to help me capture them in my sketchpad

so I will always remember them!

Warm and Cool

 I used warm colors on this plate.

These colors are red, pink, orange and yellow.

 

And these are the cool colors: blue. green and purple.

I took a break from my melody plates this week and instead did these 'warm and cool' exercise when Lui noticed that I am getting hyperactive and she wanted me to remember how to use colors to control my moods. On this session I prefer the warm colors so I need to imagine the cool colors (the opposite of warm) to balance my moods.
