drawing challenge: smile







as a child I liked to draw with felt pencils
after I bought new ones I draw with a smile

struggling on the smile of Love, which I know for 25 years
I remember why I love model-drawing more

but the most beautiful smile
those of our sons

this weeks challenge is hosted by Leena

the plant is a split-leaf Philodendron or Swiss Cheese Plant
we call it Vingerplant, Finger plant


glimlach

als kind tekende ik graag met viltstiften
nadat ik deze week nieuwe kocht teken ik met een glimlach

ploeterend op de glimlach van Lief, die ik al 25 jaar ken
weet ik weer waarom ik meer van modeltekenen hou

maar de mooiste lach
die van onze zoons

deze week is Leena onze host

  6. dear
    patrice

    thank you so much for the heart warming words you wrote me at my blog,
    made me very happy.

    the last years my life has given me some hard challenges and i was actually thinking about the same thing as the quote you shared with me says:
    my life is NOW and it needs to be lived NOW, i can't wait until days are getting easier.....i want to embrace life as it is here and now and dance in any kind of life's "weather"...

    your drawings are so beautiful. i am going to make myself a nice cup of tea now and look more in here.

    wishing you a good sunday,
    vibeke

  7. Dearest Patrice,
    tonight I've dreamt of you! You had a wonderful, warm smile. We met at an office/atelier/showroom which was very inviting: off white walls, two big shop windows and an old shop door. There were other different material like wool and metal, flowers and fruits on a long, wooden table. That makes me smile in the morning!
    Your drawing of your silver husband is adorable. Pretty smile... I can see family likeness! When I imagine you took the pics of your sons I smile, they are wonderful.
    Your amazing drawing of the Philodendron could be a pretty fabric!

    A very heartwarming post, thank you.
    Love,
    Ariane.

  11. oy, ik was van overtuigd dat het bovenste foto een vrouw is,
    misschien door de dikke mooie wimpers,
    hopelijk kan het nog als compliment genomen worden,
    want dan geen mooie vrouw, maar heel mooie jonge.

  16. Dear Patrice - I love your smile drawings and also the way you have illustrated the monstera leaves, they would make a lovely design for some curtain fabric.
