Back to my Uganda images.......This Muslim girl glanced back just as I clicked the shutter....We were driving through the outskirts of Kampala , on our way to the airport guest house....I think the image is a compelling portrait into the life of a typical Ugandan citizen.Click on the image for a closer look
Right now I am fascinated with painting and drawing on this brown paper!.....sorry about the glare.........=/..

LOVING the sketch/paint thing you have going here!
You're really onto something here, Robin. I think the vivid paint looks so striking against the earthy looking brown paper. The contrast is lovely!
Hi Diane, Thanks, I guess I will keep going and see where this idea leads.
Thank you Silvi! I think I need to explore some different papers, but will continue to go with this technique and just have fun with it.
Hi Robin,
I also love the combined mediums.
It's very rich and so telling of the moment you saw her.
It's really a striking work and idea.

Thank you Vikki!!....No time to comment on everyones blog right now ...It's sooo frustrating!!!...I'll talk to you soon....
I think there is something very rich in the brown paper when used as a support... It makes me feel that we all have something in common. I guess because it is so common to us all??? I have only used the brown paper once to do some painting/drawing on. It sold to the first person who saw it...
I love this drawing and painting you've done. Your drawing skills are remarkable. I love your sketches.
Nancy, thank you for your kind words.
