Emotion in motion

Working with a group brings joyful challenges...
While I am at ease with drawing the outside, others are masters of drawing the inside.

Here are some samples of my attempts of these two sessions... (and other's!)

First one - drawing music:
Everyone brought a song, and we drew the song while hearing it.
Note: below each drawing - the link will take you to the music!
Note#2: You can visit a fellow drawer with same songs from same session here.

Fever Ray - Keep the streets empty for me.

A song sang by Mari,
A song of joy by a tribe in the rainforest.
drawing with eyes closed.
(this is not it)

Amon Tobin - Lighthouse

Wine and Roses (not the right music in the link,..)

Laurie Anderson - Sweaters

Eugene Chadbourne - Georgia in a Jug (but the link is different...)

Glenn Miller - String of pearls


Mika - Take it easy

Barry Sacharof - Lev Shalem (a whole heart) 

Ori Chiraya 

WovenHand - to make a ring

Joe Jackson - five guys names Moe take 1

Joe Jackson - five guys names Moe take 2
Music by Fairuz (wrong link)

- Drawn from both sides

Second one: Feelings
Note: see Florina's drawing here.
 for the following exercise, we drew some feelings/ sensations

Freezing cold on a sunny day

FOMO: The Fear Of Missing Out (my friends have more fun that me now)

Drowning slowly with an increasing sense of panic (DSWISP)
And for teh DSWISP part, here are some more!
DISWIP with a BIG smile - but it was HIS IDEA
(and notice his colors, and teh colors he chose:)

DSWISP or a dark vase..

Post full-of-color, part 1


The is a saying in hebrew (though the translation is lame): Create your own teachers.
I recently did, I aquired two great teachers, one for touching colors, and one for touching the abstract.

Here are some works inspired by the first (I'll keep the second for nextime)..

A visit to St. Chapelle, with its color-filled stained glass windows.
A cold day, inside the remains of the church, with huge windows, I was looking for a huge quiet and free place, but wound up in a small crowded place with admission fees. 

In any case, the colors were stunning! 
I loved this photo, for the phisical presence of the paper.
Two markers at teh same hand.
And a sketch to finish off

Next Session, at the Cafeteria of Galerie Lafayette.
And this one truely surprised me... I let go the pencil and used just colors, and suddenly felt very Duffy-ish as the city-scape unravelled.

After doing the bottom half, I had to risk it, so I spilled random spots on top. I am really happy with this one!

Visiting La-Geode
At the bottom you can see two fellow drawers
Attempt to catch the trees reflecting
Catching sunrays outside a museum
Same sunrays, Same outside, drew two drawers drawing.

See y'all!

Flying Colors

Dedicated to the late great Dennis Potter, half of this post is published in this blog (call it the right side of my brain), while the other is published in the competing blog (left side, etc.)

The two posts are independent, but inseparable.

When I created this Blog (seems like ages), I was craving for visitors, for people who will take my stuff and play with it, send me the result, I'll publish them, etc.

The guests are here! the room is flooded! enjoy!


A word or two of explanation;
- What you are about to see is a group exhibition, a collaborative work.
In fact, the word 'work' is tricky in two senses:
  • It is not work as opposed to play.
  • Unfortunately, I can't show you the work, I can only photograph the result on paper, so, as much as I want to say nothing, I'll put a touch of comments on some photos to explain the work. but since I don't know all of the process (see a previous post where I tried to observe my process, there are too much things to note...) please acknowledge this is a tip of an iceberg.


collaborative - lines by one, shades by other.

just told her: add some triangles

Note to myself: remember documenting process!

Greens first by one, Blues second by other
