drawing | mood board

i've been mind mapping, and i've been planning accordingly. and then... time. ran. out. i pulled up a few pages from my sketch books I and II to build up a certain accord to the flower head i'm showing off. 



i've forgotten what flower it is i drew last september, as an hommage to a collapsing summer. i thought of the flower, because of the burst of colour. and also because our dear rose is collecting.

    How cool! I love the single long strands that curl out from the flower and all your feathery marks. You are quite talented, friend.

    I think you might like seeing my post on how I ended up in this house and a photo log of it. I posted it in response to questions I got. It's there now. ♥b

    love the flower
    the way you keep "a diary" of moods and colours
    the way you can return to those

    a good way to keep a mood ;)

    Wow!
    In the first I see a restless, yet extremely creative spirit that rages like a chicken gone wild over the paper and leaves its traces everywhere.
    Flower images can often be a little too sweet, but yours not, its vibrant and pulsates and seems like a boiling vulcano inside.

    oooh, dearest Nadeschda, thank you so much for that beauuutiful pink flower!
    I wanna a loud colour... I wanna PINK! Yeah!
    And what me makes sighing here is the delicacy of it, how you have made the drawing... so much patience and loveliness. In addition to it your pages of your sketch books... WOW! you even seems to be a bustler! "Two soulds alas! are dwelling in my breast", no?

    Love!
    xo Ariane.

    makes me think a bit of a peony even though they probably look different? anyhow,
    it is beautiful!
    and that old building, love those, such an ambiance they bring with them. stories, history, memories...
