Yesterday, I decided to get another EDM challenge under my belt. I had hoped to also get this week's (#118) challenge done but I ended up with a horrific migraine and I'm still dealing with the fall-out from that. Hopefully, I'll get the chance over the weekend. :)
We got the news a couple of days ago that our landlord is not renewing our lease after 4½ years so this means having to find another rental home in the next three months. In the current real estate market, rentals are highly priced and quite scarce so it is not going to be easy. I'm trying to keep a positive frame of mind despite the fact that the stress is what probably brought on my migraine yesterday. It will be sad to leave this house as, we have lived here twice, for just over four years each time so the kids have kinda grown up here too. :(
Hi Serena! it's a great sketch. You captured the perspective, the lights and shadows very well. I really like it. Greetings:)
ReplyDeleteVery nice job on the wallet. Great texture. Sorry about having to move.....not fun at all.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Martin ~ :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment too, Deborah. I'm really not looking forward to moving again but it's not like I have a choice so I will try to think positive and look on it as a new chapter in my life. :)
Wow, the shading and detail on this is REALLY, really good! (Sorry about having to move, too.)

ReplyDeleteHi Serena,
ReplyDeleteA bit tardy with my comments, but you know how much I love your precision work. It's outstanding. Sorry for your migraine, I know them all to well. Think of the move as the beginning of a new journey for you....it'll be fantastic...Ro
Great sketch Serena! Wonderful detail and shading, well done! Wish you luck on your search for a new place, it's a shame you have to move and I sympathise thoroughly!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ro! Trying to keep a positive mind as I believe things happen for a reason and it's high time I had a change of scenery. Now, if only I can get all my packing magically done for me. lol
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mariana! Thanks too for the well wishes in finding a new place. :)
Great drawing - I could not do that well, even upside down (damned scientifically trained left brain!)!
ReplyDelete"the stress is what probably brought on my migraine yesterday."
I was about to suggest that. I get migraines as well.
*hug*
Thank you, Natalie!
ReplyDeleteMigraines are horrible things to deal with so *hugs* to you also.
This is superb! You have such an excellent way with the details in your drawings.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lynn ~ :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I hate moving.
ReplyDeleteI'm sending good thoughts for you that everything works out and this situation ends up turning into a blessing.
:)
I'm way behind on the challenges as well. Your blog is fun and love your acrylic work. I get migraines too and they knock me out sometimes for days. I also really liked your round challenge (#117)...it's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your well wishes, stapeliad! I hope too that the situation will turn out to be a blessing.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the great comment, Marta!
Beautiful work on the wallet! I should've done mine all folded up like that. Sorry to hear about the lease. Hope you guys find something you like for a resonable price.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sherie, and thanks for the well wishes on finding another house too.
