Lilith in my Myth Moly_x_20

Sitting at sick at home, with no chance of going to bed during the past days, at least I had the chance to draw a little bit today. 

The pages I drew show Lilith in a comic version. (I think she must be from Marvel.) I´ve always been fascinated by the story of Adam´s first wife.

(I just love the top picture, which was altered with an iPhone app. I guess I do need some brighter colors to draw my stuff.)

Second Addition to Joyce´s Moly_x_20

This is my second contribution to Joyce´ moleskine* .

It took me ages to get started with this one. I had stopped with the moly_x exchanges for a while, as I was frustrated about all the lost molys. But we are back on track and slowly starting again. 

Marty (the founder of moly_x), thanks for getting new power into the moly_x groups.

*Check out Joyce´s art. Her photorealistic drawings are incredible.

Hello?

Hi All,

My name is Jennifer Kraska. I've been asked to monitor the activity on some of the groups. Looks like this exchange has had a bit of a rough go. Is anybody still actively participating in this group?

Update

• Lisa just sent me some information about the molys. Thanks!
• 
  
• Joyce: no moly
• Leah: 2 molys + her own
• Martha: no moly
• Lisa: has her own and Martha´s molys (which she´ll send back soon)
• Kerstin: no moly

We are calling it quits!

Hi everybody,

I´m sorry to say this, but we will close down the group. It is of no use when there is no continued rotation of the books. I do not get many replies to my messages and it is a pity that some molys seem to have disappeared.

I offer to send out self addressed envelopes with the postage to anybody who needs it. It would be great if all the molys show up again.

@all:

Please let me know, which molys you have got and please return them to the owners or to me. I´ll pass them on. Thanks.

Take care,
Kerstin

My entry before Joyce´s addition

Here are finally the pictures of my addition to the myth-moly. I drew this during my vacation where I didn´t have access to a scanner before passing the moly on. Thanks Joyce for sending me the scans. The other pics are from my camera.

The Wild Moly

I`m drawing moleskine crazy lately! I got Kerstin`s book from Fuerteventura two days ago and I was totally in a drawing mood to finish my entry.
the theme of this book is Mythology, and seriously I think I didn`t do very well on my last entry, so I`m going to work harder this time, and I`m pretty happy with it turns out.
actually I was going to draw something from "The Chronicles of Narnia" 'cause it fit the book theme better, but I suddenly changed my mind....

the drawing was from "Where the Wild Things Are"(Maurice Sendak`s most well-known children`s picture book), I had the book since I was little, and this fall they gonna have the movie, but I didn`t put many expection after seeing the trailer... I mean, I love the book and I admire Tom Hanks, but I just think the movie it too Hollywood style, Anyway- I hope you like the drawing Kerstin, 'cause it`s gonna be one of my fav moly drawings.



oh and comparing to my last entry, seriously, I think an year and half makes an artist grows alot, thanks to Moly_x.

My book in second round

Jeez, our last blog updated was in two monthes ago?

Looks everyone is busying at the moment.

a quick post here, I got my moly from Kerstin about... two weeks ago? then this would be how it looks so far.
I was kida failed at the first "Wolfy drawing", so I decided to add another drawing on my book....

not really satisfied with both drawings actually, let`s see what I can fix.
;)

by the way, the theme of my book in next round would be no theme, please draw anything you like, anything you`re good at..sketching, collage, doodling.. whatever, just have fun.

Joyce´ Moly

I loved the collage which Lisa made for Joyce´moly. So I tried it too. Here´s my first try at a collage. I had fun with it.

Down Town Boise - City Sketch....

Yea!! I have Joyce's moly done now!! Had a bit o' fun with this one... drew on some recycled handmade paper (I made about 18 months ago) then added bits and pieces to give it some more interest... I find it humorous that most Capital buildings all look the same... you can not get close to ours right now due to all the major construction going on while the city adds a new basement and right wing onto the Capital building.

medusa & pegasus

My addition to Kerstin's moly.....

Pegasus, the winged horse, was the son of Poseidon and Medusa. Medusa had been one of three beautiful sisters.

Athena was angered that Medusa met with Poseidon in one of her temples. She changed Medusa into a terrible monster. Zeus kept Pegasus out of the world to placate Athena. Pegasus (and the warrior Chrysaor) sprang from Medusa’s body after she was killed by Perseus.

Happy Holidays!

Thanks to everybody who brought a smile to my face the past year. (I hope I didn´t forget anyone.) Anyway have a wonderful holiday and enjoy your time off.

(It looks little bit empty I`ll see if I can add something else....)

Leah´s moly

Last week the download of the pics from the digicam to my Mac did´t work. Today somehow I managed to get the pics on my hard drive.

Here´s Leah´s moly "Enter the Carneval":

Leah's moly "Enter the Carneval"

When I hear Carneval, I immediately think of the Carneval at Venice. About 12 years ago I drove all night with the bus to Italy to spend the day there during carneval season and taking the same bus back home to Germany that evening. I loved it.
I had actually planned to draw the masks full white, but can you imagine that I haven´t got a white!!! I checked out the tons of colors my kids have and they also don´t have a white. But I like it like this too.
I took a picture of the complete moly too, but somehow my mac doesn´t recognize my camera any more. So I can´t download the pics. I´m not sure why, I haven´t had that before. Any ideas?

Lee`s moly "Place"

　　I finished my entry to Lee`s moly this week, the sand lizard is moving to a big city! woo!

Lee´s Moly

I´m finally done with Lee´s Moly and sent it off to Joyce today morning. Of all the 4 Moly Exchange groups, this one has been the biggest challenge for me. I have great difficulties adding art to delicate and wonderful drawings like Lisa´s and Martha´s scenery. But now that I´m finally done with it, I´m okay with the results.
I continued Lisa´s landscape in light colors in the background and drew a colorful tree in the foreground.

Leah's moly "Enter the Carnival"

"Enter The Carnival" is on it's way to Germany!! I must say I had a lot of fun with this one. I love carnival character's costume the best of all costumes. Perhaps it is just me... but I swear there is always a creepy clown guy lurking in the shadows when ever I go to the carnival or circus...

Looking forward to seeing what everyone else has been working on the past month!! :) Cheers!
