Anna Connor: May 2014
http://annaconnor.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, 31 May 2014. I’ve been so inspired by the beautiful robin’s song this spring. A short story sprang to mind. I’ve been working on some visual ideas for it, and here are a few sketches. I usually I work quite fast. I’ve decided to go slow with this project, and have fun trying lots of different ideas, and just enjoying the process of drawing! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Anna Connor: Birds!
http://annaconnor.blogspot.com/2014/03/birds.html
Monday, 31 March 2014. I often pay attention to birds. I often draw birds. Birds are all around - not a day goes by without seeing at least one bird, without hearing at least one song. For me, birds are a reminder of who I am and where I've come from, of my connection to nature, of my connection to all. When I see or hear a bird, I remind myself to breathe, to take a moment, to check in with myself. In this moment, am I living in my head? Some people say that being alive is a miracle.

Anna Connor: July 2014

Saturday, 26 July 2014. Some quick, rough sketches of the robin from the story. The illustrations are very slow going; I think it might be xmas before I begin to get anywhere! I’m having great fun though, and I am actually enjoying the slow pace, so many things I’ve done previously have been done to a deadline. I’m really, really enjoying the drawing aspect, it’s a wonderful feeling and gives me a fab buzz! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Drawing, painting, illustration. View my complete profile.

Saturday, 31 August 2013. Here is the finished picture! It's been a roller coaster summer full of art making, amazing fun!
