The Lake

The lake Drawing on paper by Jill Ostergren

One of those times where I was sitting and just could not stop. I find that the moment in my inner mind presented this scene for me.
It is a rare picture of when I finish a drawing, usually it is when I start a painting that I use these sketches as research.

Thank you once again for stopping by and have a great day!

Once again I tried to see shadows and effects. This art journey is amazing!

It may be simple but I love the effect it has, some day I will try to do it in a different shade and color, maybe even making a collage of it.

Wonderful Country

Wonderful country mixed media on canvas by Jill Ostergren

I just love the flow and colors, it maybe a bad resolution but still, it is a challenge to see the beginning of my art career. Its a humble experience and yet at the same time it is a quest!
A quest for finding my voice, my feelings in colors. Finding the right brush strokes.

Thanks again for viewing.

I just love my journey of art. Expressive and personal is my key. Trying to find a way to express myself. Muddy and distressed at the same time with clouds popping out at me. My times it feels like that from a distance.
