Day 162: Monoliths

 "Society is one vast conspiracy for carving one into the kind of statue it likes, and then placing it in the most convenient niche it has."

-Randolph Bourne

I could have sworn that I hit the "publish" button before I closed the window for my post for yesterday. But obviously something went wrong because I went on this morning and it wasn't there. Oops. So the last post was done yesterday. And this is today's post, done completely in pastels. I really wanted to use some color.

Day 161

Day 160: The Way

"The way is not in the sky. The way is in the heart."

-Buddah

Day 159: Another portrait

I wasn't feeling very inspired to draw anything creative today, so I just did another portrait. I realize it's boring...

Day 158: Crown of Flowers

"Earth laughs in flowers."

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

"I'd rather have diamonds on my table than diamonds on my neck."

-Emma Goldman

"When you have only two pennies left in the world, buy a loaf of bread with one, and a lily with the other."

-Chinese Proverb

"Flowers whisper 'Beauty!' to the world, even as they fade, wilt, fall."

-Dr. Sunwolf

Drawing flowers with pastels is a lot of fun! And since it's spring I figure it's the perfect time to draw a lot of them. 

Day 157: Fountain

"Few people know so clearly what they want. Most people can't even think what to hope for when they throw a penny in a fountain."

-Barbara Kingsolver

Despite the fact that some of my favorite sketches are ones that I just scribble down in about 20 minutes, when I feel like I'm rushing, I'm never happy with what I draw. And Mondays are always super busy for me. And I'm not a huge fan of this sketch.

Day 156

I have a pretty busy day and just had time for a quick sketch today. I know this is boring, but it's all I have time for.
