Mondoodle & BIG news

By elise | Published: August 17, 2010

Hello lovely friends. Firstly let me apologise for the accidental tuesdoodle. Which isn’t even a word. I was working hard all weekend (hello to everyone at the markets) and then spent the last two days at a school, MGC, in Richmond. Hello awesome girls! We had a very productive and fun two days. Well I [...]

Mondoodle 28-06-2010

By elise | Published: June 29, 2010

Yes, you are caught in a time loop. You thought it was Tuesday but it’s Monday again, and again. Which is good because it means it’s drawing day and I’m not late! If I was (and I’m still liking the time loop story) it was because I had an evil migraine on Sunday night which [...]

I was writing today in a cafe and (everyone who has ever workshopped with me can laugh now) I did a new beginning to my novel. This is something I do (shuffles awkwardly) well, quite often. In fact I am known for multiple first chapters. It’s a talent. Someone’s got to have it. One day [...]

Mondoodle 26-04-2010

By elise | Published: April 26, 2010

Sorry about last week’s lack of Mondoodle. It’s a little strange being up in the studio tonight. I’ve been working in the lounge for weeks now, painting of course. I’d prefer to be up here as the light’s so much better but the big canvas made me relocate. I haven’t actually worked on that for [...]

Mondoodle 05-04-2010

I trust you’ve been having a restful long weekend – if you are somewhere where they give you one… I’ve been a-marketing, painting, drawing and enjoying the presence of the unseasonably warm sun. Very nice! You may recognise part of this from an earlier post. Well now I think I’ve finished it and I thought [...]

Mondoodle 29-03-2010

By elise | Published: March 29, 2010

I had a hankering for some watercolour tonight. Drawn in the studio at 10.30pm on Monday March 29, 2010. He has a lean and hungry look. I feel that I should draw what he’s so focused upon… only I don’t know what it should be. We’ve had lots of grasshoppers around lately… maybe one of [...]

Mondoodle 22-03-2010

By elise | Published: March 22, 2010

It’s late, it’s dark, the cocoon studio is a clutter of paintings around me and smelling strongly of turps and oils. In my slightly wonky tired state it’s rather nice and very familiar. I think… a link to my past as well as my present as it almost feels like it could be my mum’s [...]

I'll just do a little more…

By elise | Published: February 10, 2010

On that last Mondoodle. Which leads me to a question. When is a picture finished? How do you know when to stop? Sometimes I know I go on too far with a picture – there are often lots of points when you think – that’s pretty good now, I should stop… I’ll just do a [...]
