Channeling Miró

Lab 20 explored the lines, shapes, and colors of artist Joan Miró. I happened upon a quote attributed to Oprah: "The only people who never tumble are those who never mount the high wire".  I  thought combining the line writing with the stick figure would complete the exercise. Sometimes what I see in my head, doesn't always translate well to paper, but I'm pleased with how this page turned out. Watercolor, gouache, Sharpie markers, FW acrylic black ink, Nikko G nib.

Do you struggle to get your ideas down on paper?

    I struggle with getting my thoughts on paper every single day. :) I love the little birds in this picture!
