Peace Sign: Up or Down
Ever had one of those brain fart moments?
Nancy and I did for a minute when putting up our new peace sign and couldn't remember which way to put it, duh! The version we know was designed by Gerald Holtom , a pacifist, who was promoting Nuclear Disarmament. The image isn't a new one though, the current version is an adaptation of the Algiz ( (Rune of Protection). I rather like it this way as it also looks like a tree or a person reaching out to the sky.

Glad to see you're doing your thing Corrine. I especially got a good giggle from your comment on the life drawing with your left hand, practise makes perfect. Got to try drawing boobs myself with my left hand now. hehehe What it did was remind me how normal breasts use to look like, you know, big ones, small ones, pointy ones, flat ones, all shapes and sizes. Now a days, they are getting to be all either a "D" or "DD" or larger and pointing towards the sky....help!!!!!
that collage of knit ups on that tree looks fab
hiay shez, how ya doing? I just have to do me own thing lol! I can't seem to help myself.
I don't think I would be interested in drawing fake boobs. If I want to draw plastic bodies I would just draw a mannequin. Real bodies are so much more challenging and interesting.
I see a few posts down here that you've been pondering the combination of fabric and paint...I think we share similar ponderings!
