Lazy River

  Terry McAuliffe

 

What could be more relaxing or refreshing in the scorching, summer month of August than a nice, lazy river? This month’s inspiration is just that: something to sooth the soul, relax and mind and body, and inspire the creativity in everyone. As we float along the river this month, we can see the inspiration brought on by the lush greens and browns of nature, the flow of the water, and the wide open spaces of the sky as they are depicted in the inspiration piece.

 

 

Inspiration piece.

 

 

 

Design note: 

I drew my inspiration from the shape of they bottom picture.  The river running through the middle of the land drew my eye and I started with that as my basic sketch.  From there, I layered items like the rocks in the water, making sure to keep some white space for my "river banks". 

 

What a fun inspiration piece!

Design note: I was inspired by the ragged river edge so I tore my paper and let it flow across the page. I also left plenty of wide open space.

Journaling is a quote from an unknown author, “A daughter like you is a very precious gift.”
