A Ride on the Carousel
Charcoal Portrait of a child, I drew in 2008
Funny thing though, back then I didn’t like this one that much,
now I just think she looks precious.

The Emu
/ January 20, 2013I like it, it reminds me of the eyes of the young children when I was in Vietnam, she has an Asian style about her.
Emu
Deb
/ January 20, 2013I see I forgot to put eye lashes on her…that could be why.
Thanks Emu!

/ January 20, 2013Thanks Rosy!
teeceecounsel
/ January 20, 2013I know that experience! At one time something just seems not good enough and probably years later, it just seems precious. This is quite a lovely painting, and yes, the child looks precious.
Nice work!
Deb
/ January 20, 2013Weird how that happen. I’ve been looking at some of my artwork from years ago and wonder why I was so critical of it. We are forever changing.
Thanks Teecee! 🙂
teeceecounsel
/ January 20, 2013You are welcome, Deb. That’s life for us. Change is the only constant thing. We just have to keep advancing how we know best.
Deb
/ January 20, 2013Thank you, Teecee. when we change, and change our thinking our outlooks on things change too.
Thank you so much again for your positive input on this!
violetski

Deb

Binky
/ January 20, 2013That’s very nice. 2008? You were merely a child yourself back then!

Thanks Binky…I’m glad you like it!

Scott Mitchell
/ January 20, 2013It is precious and I love it! Glad you shared it Debbie
Deb
/ January 20, 2013I’m glad I finally got around to posting it. I hadn’t looked at it in years, and really have no idea why I was so critical of the work I did on it. I think is was making a fuss about her hand….so silly of me.
Thanks Scott!

Tony McGurk
/ January 21, 2013Lovely drawing Deb. The highlights you’ve captured in her hair gives it a very realistic look.
I think my email notifications are sorted now. I tried a couple of different plugins that didn’t work then I tried Feedburner, subscribed to it myself & posted a test comic & the notification came through OK. I took it upon myself to enter your email so you should have received a Feedburner email for you to click a link to activate your subscription. Let me know if it doesn’t work for you.
Deb
/ January 21, 2013I got it, and clicked the link, says I’m good to go.
Thank you for the comment on my drawing! 🙂
Valentine Logar
/ January 21, 2013Nicely drawn, very sweet face
Deb
/ January 21, 2013Thank you, Val!
Geoff
/ January 21, 2013You are really good with charcoal Deb
actually you are very good with everything 🙂
I hope that your Monday has started off
really nicely, I spent ages clearing snow off
the path and car this morning but managed
to get back onto my street and park up so
that is something as the roads are horrible 😦
Geoff xxx
Deb
/ January 21, 2013Thank you, Geoff!
So far so good, I’m only half way though my first cup of coffee.
Mitch is quite irked though since the cable bill will increase by 5 bucks next month.
Sounds like you got quite a bit of snow. I’m glad you got is cleared out of you way though. It can be such a pain …literally. I hope you don’t need to drive anywhere today either, maybe in a day or two once is melted some or been tended too.
I’m going after my second cup of coffee now. I’ll get you a tea to warm you up.
Have a great day, Geoff, and stay warm.
Hugs xxx
Geoff
/ January 21, 2013Yes I will have a cuppa thank you Deb 🙂
Prices are always going up here too, like
petrol for instance, that is almost £7 per
gallon in the UK so what a joke that is 😦
Have a nice rest of day Deb 🙂
Geoff xxx
Deb
/ January 21, 2013Oh Wow! You petrol is even higher than ours! So ridicules!
Have a great day, my friend!…and don’t drive anywhere you don’t need to. 😉

Novroz
/ January 21, 2013She is indeed precious!!
an innocent lovely girl.
Great job Deb 🙂
Deb
/ January 21, 2013Thank you very much, Novroz! 🙂
lscotthoughts
/ January 21, 2013She is definitely precious, Deb, and you have much talent, my friend. People are so difficult to draw and this is amazing! Sending hugs to you! xo
Deb
/ January 21, 2013They are not the easiest for me to draw, though young children are yet easier than someone much older that has lots of lines or wrinkles.
Thank you, Lauren! 🙂
Love and hugs! xxx
lscotthoughts
/ January 21, 2013That makes sense about the age, well, good job, Deb! xoxo
Deb
/ January 21, 2013Thanks again, my friend! 🙂 xxx
spilledinkguy
/ January 21, 2013Wonderful work, Deb!
Is she based on you or someone you know? Was she inspired by your imagination? Or maybe even a combination of those?!
🙂
Deb
/ January 21, 2013I just started drawing and this is what came of it. 🙂
hannekekoop
/ January 21, 2013Oh Deb, very lovely. Going on the carousel, maybe a little bit afraid or shy, but knowing her parents or grandparents are there for her.
Deb
/ January 22, 2013I know I’ve told you this before, but will again…”I love your vision!”
Thank you, Hanne! 🙂

Madhu
/ January 21, 2013She is gorgeous! The context in which we view our work affect how we see them 🙂
Deb
/ January 22, 2013I do believe you are correct, Madhu!…thank you! 🙂
jbstoons
/ January 21, 2013The smile on the face of a child is the best part of my day.
Deb
/ January 22, 2013You are a good man, Jeremy! 🙂

Tony McGurk
/ January 23, 2013This made me think of one of my favourite Hollies songs
Deb
/ January 23, 2013I really like that song too, Tony!…thanks for posting it! 🙂
