Sketchy

🇨🇦 TRUE SISTERS, ON THE STREET WE CAN ALSO DISCOVER FABULOUS SKETCHES, LIKE THOSE DISCOVERED BY OUR FRIEND RESA.

Graffiti Lux Art & More

I love the way this looks like a sketch on a wall.

The female face is fab.

There is also a male profile. He appears to be praying.

Here is the entire image. There is no artist signature. There is a red # message.

Did the artist put the # message there? Is the # message a tag?

Eye think the # message is a TAG! With or without the #message, I also think there is a message in here, but have no real idea what.

Rosehill Quarry Brought Me A Husband

🏙️ TRUE, SISTERS. WONDERFUL THINGS CAN HAPPEN IN THE STREET, ALTHOUGH THERE ARE ALSO LABYRINTHS.

I did this sketch a couple of weeks ago in Rosehill Quarry, a place very dear to me. Swansea musician and composer Angharad Jenkins, “Sienco”, who lives near the Quarry worked with the local community to write a new folk song based on the history of the place, which is fascinating. The stone from Rosehill Quarry, perched on the hill, was used to build Swansea Town and her song traces it’s journey from those early days, through highs and lows to its present use as a beautiful urban nature reserve and park for local people. It’s a hidden gem and a lovely place to be.

By the 1980s, the Quarry was completely overgrown and neglected but local people got together with Swansea Council to get funding from a UK-wide government job creation programme which gave temporary work to unemployed people – I was one of them – it…

Studio Reorganization, Exploring My Supplies, and Submission Acceptance to UPPERCASE Issue #58 July-Aug-Sept 2023

🌳🌳🌳 HI LOVELIES! IT’S TIME TO SHOW THESE WONDERFUL TREES, MADE BY GENIE 💚

Genie Geer Artyology

Surprising how busy I’ve been, considering my chronic fatigue diagnosis which gave a name to what has hounded me all my life. How dare I have been calling myself lazy? Other people have. Take that! other people. At age 75, maybe the diagnosis is a gift in a couple ways. I can pat myself on the back when I manage to vacuum. I enjoy being alone. I have tightly curated collections of dolls, and heirlooms, and a wardrobe I love (I favor a flowing Swedish style and jazzy glasses). And can we talk about the art and decor books? So recently, I started curating my supplies / inventory. And had the Salvation Army haul off my 7 ft. sofa, in favor of keeping just the Barcelona chair and red curvy chaise lounge. Girl, I purged my closet too.

Trees across the parking lot. Holbein watercolors
