Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Figure Drawing and evolving bean soup


 Here is my piece for Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date.  It is a figure drawing mannequin, an ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2").


And my bean soup keeps evolving.  This time I used black beans and a can of corn along with leftover meat and gravy from a pork sirloin roast I had done.  So I didn't add any extra stock, just 3 extra cups of water.

  1. I really LOVE your mannequin drawing. Sounds like your bean soup takes on whatever leftovers are available. I think that is the best kind of soup!

  4. So cool! Wonderful drawing! Great about the bean soup. Such great ingenuity. I should do something like that. Maybe when it cooler. As of late, we aren't in such a heat wave.

  5. Nice figure drawing, and the best thing about bean soups is they can evolve and never be the same soup twice! hugs-Erika

  20. You got your proportions perfectly when drawing the model that is there to show you proportion :) Clever, clever girl ... and I love bean soup and yours looks (and if I were there I would know it smells) delicious. As much as I love been soup, I need to heed what my days plans are before I eat it ... :0

  21. Your homemade soup looks delicious, Christine. I rarely make soup the same way twice. Often I'm using up bits of this and that in the fridge. I like your choice of word: evolving. Great job on the manikin. Have a good weekend!

  25. Coincidentally, a few days back I was cleaning out a drawer and found my little wooden figure like that. I have it sitting on my dresser now and change its' pose every time I walk by. Nice art.
