Drawing 9 of 365

Here’s a doll left out in the garden to fend for herself and find a way back to her nice warm dollhouse.

I really didn’t want to do this today; pages in my sketch book of listless doodles, a late night, a late start, other things to do, the novelty wearing off – all the usual suspects.

But I’m glad I pushed through with drawing number 10. When I think about it, there’s probably going to be many more hard days than inspired days, so tricks and techniques for getting through it are going to be the key. My mantra for today was “when in doubt, draw girls in pretty dresses”… so that’s where I started.

Tomorrow I intend to lash out with an entirely different colour palette. Have you noticed my predilection towards brown, pink, orange and black? Drawing 10 will be all about green and blue. Pinky promise.
