Sketching #121

CPP Response #121: Aquarium
CPP Response #121: Aquarium

I know I have said this before, but sometimes I really do wonder what has possessed me when I pick the words for the prompt. Some prove to be more challenging for me than others. Know when I select the word, I select it for the promise of what the response can be and not what I have in my mind. I often do not have a response in my mind when create the prompt.

This one was part of the giant series of drawings I did over a few evenings. I really wanted to catch up with the ones I missed/neglected. I can always go back and redo some as I did with Beckon, so the ones that aren’t as detailed may get a redo someday.

I don’t know why I am making excuses, but I don’t feel that this response is up to my usual standards. I guess I have to be ok with it.

Look at the original prompt and create your own response. We would love to have you play along.

  1. Careful, the ARTIST in you is showing! 🙂 Heck, I say “not good enough” for most all my CPP’s! But I know what you are saying, I think…you like your other responses more. Perhaps you will add to this one at a later date and like it better?

    I was also thinking, perhaps, since so many are not playing, you want to take another hiatus from these, OR only do them once a month? Like the 15th or the 1st of each month you have a CPP word and those who play along can do one or a gazillion responses to the same word. I am doing a similar idea theme with that Sketchbook challenge on my blog now.

    Just food for thought. Ya know I gots yer back missy, no matter how you choose to continue…as long as you DO continue! lol

    1. I am ok with putting up the prompts and responding. My blog is something I do for myself and all of you who read and comment and enjoy it are the bonus. The creative prompts are the same way. I do them for myself. If I wait to do things for the fame and glory, I will be waiting for a long time.

      I think responding to 12-15 prompts at once was a bad idea. I enjoy the process of thinking about what I will draw, doing a study and then the final drawing. Definitely incentive for me to keep up with them like I encourage everyone else to do. I don’t want to lessen the frequency of the prompts. I have a goal of 365 and I’d like to get there. After, perhaps I’ll tone down the frequency. We’ll see.
