Hey, I try. Although there are many types of Brown Bear still, so if you're trying to be specific, there'll be a third jumble of letters thrown onto the end there. Just don't get in a scientific name-off with a Bearologist any time soon, that's all I'm saying.
So anyway, this weekend, I decided to play with Sharpies. They're utensils that I feel as though I should be able to use more adeptly, but unfortunately my attempts usually end up looking like childish scribbles (more so than anything else I do, to clarify). But I want to get better at things, so I'm gonna keep trying, darn it! As I've been working on improving my printmaking skills, as I discussed in this post from a couple of weeks ago, I've been drawing a lot of bears. (Why? Because I think bears are adorable and would be the perfect subjects for some Christmas cards.) So when this itch to try a Sharpie drawing came upon me, an image of a bear was the first thing that popped into my head.
Now, I say I was obscenely careful with every movement that marker made on paper, but there was still a little bit of lighthearted scribbling involved. This was a project for fun, after all, not to induce more stress.
Thanks for looking,
Sarah
