Artful Weekend

Weekends became sacred moments since I started working on a full time job again.

Last Saturday, I wanted to try my hand on sketching. Even before my eyes opened up to savor the warmth of the sunlight pouring through my windows, my thoughts were on where to find my sketch pad and those charcoal pencils that remained unused these past months.

For several hours I walked around the house, conferring with my muse on the best subject for my "art project". And while I was sitting there, waiting for my muse to make its final decision on what to do about my request, I started taking some pictures using the camera in my cellphone on anything that caught my interest inside the house.

I seldom explore the functions of my cellphone but this is one of those days when I am in my "daring" mood to make a few adjustments on the camera setting. And after uploading the pictures in the computer, I found out my muse had been working with me afterall.

Here's a "sketch" of Kim while busy writing her essay, which she had to submit that day in school.

And the two cats playing with the dust floating with the sunlight before it hit the floor.

Oppps, they look so sweet I can't help myself capturing these precious moments on cam.


Okay, maybe I can try working on my real sketch pad next weekend. Thank you my dear muse for these tips on how to go about my art project the next time around. :-)
