I think I'd like to start my days with a warm-up. Maybe a pencil drawing or ink or a quick oil - something quick. Something to loosen me up. I may sell them, I'm not sure if they're even going to be worthy - nonetheless I'd like to post them.
This quick study is a combination of ink and oil paints on drawing paper.
Nice. Thanks for posting, and please post more as you do them. It is always fun to see the different ways artists use to "limber up" before working. For me at least, the working process can be as interesting as the finished results of a days work.
Karin, Each day as soon as my schedule permits I go to your blog knowing I'm in for a pleasant surprise. You never fail. Drawing, the basic exercise,like going to the gym, we don't do it often enough. Have a great day.

I agree - I think it's always good to see what goes before the final output and what's involved in an artist's working process.
Karin,
