A very quick post today as I'm feeling so tired after my late night trip to the hospital emergency yesterday. I didn't get back home until after 1am and didn't get to bed until after 2am. You can read all about it on my previous post HERE as well as see my first Inktober sketch. I have today's ink sketch done but the artificial lighting is terrible for taking photos at night. I will photograph and post it tomorrow morning instead.
My foot is doing much better today thanks to the anti-inflammatory medication and resting it. My hand is still in a fair bit of pain though. If it doesn't ease in a week, I might go back to my own doctor just for a second opinion. I would have felt better had they done an X-ray. A chap from the Plaza's Centre Management rang today to check up on how I was doing which was a nice gesture.
As you know, I've been quite busy with online classes of late and I will share more about that in another post. For now, I thought I'd share a journal page I did last week.
Brushwork first
Followed by the ink
The finished page

What a lovely journal page. Your art is so beautiful. Thanks for your insights on inking on my blog, I think it's something I will try to apply next year. I hope you are in less pain soon.
ReplyDeleteLove seeing how you build your pages Serina! Fabulous! And I must comment on your gorgeous handwriting too... Mine is okay at first but then quickly turns to chicken scrawl as I get lazy! :0)
ReplyDelete...PS... I couldn't get on to the other post for some reason, but I'm sorry you are having issues with your foot and your hands... I hope it doesn't affect your drawing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful sketchbook page, Serena. I really, really love it and the shade of blue/turquoise you used. I do hope you're feeling better soon. I'm sure you're frustrated but hang in there. :)
ReplyDeleteOh dear so sorry to hear about the fall. Sounds it was a nasty one. I am glad you did not break anything but yes do get that hand checked out with your doctor. Do take care of the foot as it can affect your back too. Been there done that.. Your tree sketch is absolutely fabulous and the morning coffee cup delightful.
