drawing challenge


























This weeks drawing challenge is hosted by the lovely Mano and she has a great theme: driftwood!
I absolutely love wood and in particular the wood I find. In our home we have lots of wood we found and we made things out of it or just put it somewhere as decoration. I also love furniture made of driftwood, my dream is to have a nice cupboard made of it. For this challenge I tried something new: I took a photo and put it together with a drawing of mine. I like the atmosphere in it. For more driftwood inputs check out Mano's blog! (which you should do anayway!).

And to start the weekend: some changes on my blog!

  1. i can't hardly believe the amount of driftwood washing ashore in that pic! but i guess it is quite possible!! strange juxtaposition also, against the trees in the backgrounds. but it's all about the addition of the drawing, innit? ;)))
    great job, the putting together. i've yet not mastered that digital art. ..

  3. Hi, Celine, I love the photo with your drawing,
    seems not a beach where you could be in swimsuit sunbathing, and there is what I like. contradiction, the opposite (I told you)
    also the color that you gave your drawing fits perfectly in color, and photo's atmosphere
    congratulations :)

  13. This could be a graphic presentation illustration in a magazine. This is a kind of creativity that is so far out of my league I just admire it tremendously. Love this. *smiles* Norma, xo
