For all my Belly Achin'!

images/dyefig.jpg
Oh My Goodness! Last night was my figure drawing class, and all day long I belly ached about not wanting to go! Around 2:30, I gave myself permission to forgo class and go home. Suddenly, it was OK! I wanted to go! It no longer felt like a pain in the butt.
I needed PERMISSION NOT TO GO!
Above is an example of what I did in class. The parallel arm and leg going off to Buffalo on the left side of the painting is a bit off putting, but overall I like the piece. This is thickened dye on cotton fabric.
Next week I will take my sewing machine and challenge myself to draw with it again, View image.

that is amazing, I absolutely love the drawing with the sewing machine, it's very lovely. The other one is really nice also.
It is so fun to see your work in this unusual medium, thanks for showing!
