First new work in Five years
 

I just started doing artwork again after five year rut.
It was in me, I had the tools, I just never started one.

An inspiration to send a thought to a friend,
started the spark.
And this is what came out of it.

And now I'm really to do even more.

Below is a picture of a kitten sleeping in the sunlight off a window,
with a rose in it's paws. The yellow is for friendship, with lavander highlights for enchantment.
It's done in the medium of colored pencils.

When I do art, I tend to do it in intense short times,
so this was done in one night.

I've taken a few, to show different angles, and to show what I work on.
Hope you enjoy, and I know more will be coming.

I need to work on my skill in dealing with fabrics,
and take more time on a piece, be willing to come back to it.
I could have added more detail, but I felt I just needed to get it out.

I did this on my art table, it depends on my mood though,
sometimes on a board laying on the couch.

For some reason I felt as if I had to pull the table out into the middle of the room,
while I paced around it and thought and looked at it from different angles.
Even though it's a soft tone to picture, I did it with such passion.
I just felt the raw energy, I hadn't felt in a long time.
I loved it.

Thanks for sharing!

Now that the spark has finally been reignited, I hope you continue to produce more!

A piece of your art with one of your favorite poems together would prove rather superb I am sure. (just a thought)

two of my favorite subjects...
kitties and roses :)

Keep up the motivation, rogue.

Can't wait to see more

Nice work Rogue.
There is a great sense of peace and romance there my friend.
It has the quiet and tenderness that only a sleeping kitty can inspire.
Seeing the work in process is very cool too.
Thanks for sharing.

Nice work. Don't be afraid to just "get it out". If that's where you're most comfortable at the moment, go with it. There are the days that I feel like creating random scribbles on the sketchpaper, and the days that I sit down for three days and do a knotwork design.

I like the art table, as well. I've just got an old board that I use for my larger works. What amuses me the most is the fact that of all the random debris in the shot, I notice the "Paranoia" box. Gamer's eyes, I guess :D

Thank you, I appreciate it.
I hope to get more out soon.
