More Jumpin' - original mixed media figurative drawing by Connie Chadwell

This little couple just finished a turn - I can't remember now what it's called (time will do that) - and never missed a beat. 
These drawing/paintings are so much fun to do - a little ink, some Caran d'Ache Neocolor I, a bit of Caran d'Ache Neoart crayon, a few touches of oil pastel, all on 6 x 6" Bristol board paper - and you're good to go!

Jumpin' - original mixed media figurative drawing by Connie Chadwell

This drawing began with a Prismacolor marker, then moved to Caran d'Ache Neoart Aquarelle, then finished up with oil pastel.  I worked furiously and when it was done, I had about as much color on me as on the drawing.  It's on Strathmore 300 6 x 6" Bristol board.  There's a lot left unsaid here, but I wanted to do it quickly before I got bogged down in too much detail.  Thanks so much for stopping by my blog!  Sold

New Year's Jive - original mixed media figurative sketch by Connie Chadwell

This sketch is a preparatory one for a more finished painting and was such fun to do!  First, I scribbled the figures with a calligraphy felt pen that has two different size tips, onto 11 x 14" Stonehenge paper and then added a little color with Crayolas!  I love those crayons; the wonderful scent of new Crayolas reminds me of happy childhood afternoons spent 'painting' in my movie star coloring books.

Thanks so much for dropping by my blog! I have sincerely appreciated your comments and emails over the past year and look forward to more visits with you in 2010 - I wish you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR!   SOLD
