EDM # 106= draw something tart or sour

i don't know very much the meaning of the words tart / sour, i mean in which cases can it be applied, if metaphorically. i found this woman had a very acid mood. the explanation is in the sketch, i added it with paint shop pro. i also did this one from the LCD from my camera. I'm so happy with it, I only bought it less than a month ago!

Wonderful paintings! Love the sketchyness of these!

Using the LCD to frame drawing ideas is good. Just got a smaller digital camera myself, with no viewfinder at all. I hated that at first, then found out how helpful it was in seeing the whole composition. It just makes a great seeing tool.
The interaction with people can be uncomfortable, though. Once I took a photo of a woman whose long red hair was backlit by the sun, while on an excursion train. She looked at me suspiciously, and even though I kept the image, I felt guilty about it.

You have a lot of great posts since I last visited, MArtin. And good for you entering the contest..it is all about enrichment and fulfillment. I like your fish and this woman is wonderful...you've done great in capturing the whole mood here.
Enjoy your camera.
Thanks for your support on my last post, I appreciate it.

Olá! Muchas gracias por tu comentario en mi art journal. Me encantan tus dibujos, en especial la forma como consigues hacerlo con pocas lineas y un poco de color. Y que coincidencia que estoy en este momento leyendo un libro de un viajante portugués que en el capítulo donde estoy ahora mismo, está visitando Buenos Aires (y disfrutandolo mucho). Uff, perdona el portuñol!

What a beautiful loose sketch. You've really captured a mood - the way you've presented her posture makes it easy to hear what she must have sounded like.
