May Drawing Challenge - Day 21

i've been v busy today editing stuff and tidying up stuff so i left the doodle a bit late. the theme was 'a ladder made up of words' so this is what i came up with...

my little ladder consists of the last few lines of "The Circus Animals' Desertion" by Irish poet and writer William Butler Yeats

here's the quote i used since you can't really make it out in the scribble above!

Now that my ladder's gone,
I must lie down where all the ladders start,
In the foul rag-and-bone shop of the heart.

(and if you want to, you can read the full poem here)

admittedly these 'made up of words' themes aren't really my cup of tea since i can't find a way to paint for them, but rules are rules so there you go.

and until tomorrow, that's all folks... xX

May Drawing Challenge - Day 14

the theme for today was a bit of a tricky one i thought, 'a tree made up of words' conjured up all sorts of images in my head and i struggled to decide on what to draw. i've been working in my college logbook all day sticking in research while listening to music. earlier this afternoon a particular song came up on my macbook and so i ended up doodling this...

yep no colour. i wasn't really in the mood to doodle or drawn anything today let alone attempt a colourfully painted tree so it's definitely my simplest doodle so far but is still quite clearly a tree made of words, well lyrics to be precise.

some lyrics from 'Follow You Down To The Red Oak Tree' by Irish folk singer James Vincent McMorrow. and just in case you're now sitting there wondering what the song sounds like, here's the video for it :)





anyway that's that and that's my doodle for today.

so until tomorrow, that's all folks... xX
