Concepts to Actions!


How do Concepts End and Actions Begin....?

#1.    You have started sketching in a journal or sketchbook.   You have begun to express your feelings and impressions, objects on your desk, table, out your window, or favorite scene from vacation, with a pencil, pen, charcoal, or paints.

#2.    Create a folder with other artists' paintings, magazine photos with colors and shapes that catch your fancy.  (Pinterest makes quick sources for reference materials of all kinds.)

#3.  Do your preferences lean toward bold shapes and colors or soft indefinite edges?
Are you happiest looking at landscapes, animals, people, abstract designs, or your very own view from the window of your mind?  You have strong opinions.

#4.  Start anywhere.  You have the tools at hand!
All the best,
