Daily Inspiration (1)

I'm currently working on a new entry with a tree and flower theme (will be up soon!). Until that's done I wanted to start sharing some of my daily inspirations. These will be drawings, photographs, poems, quotes, and other things that strike a chord with me. Hopefully you will find them useful or at the least aesthetically pleasing!

I loved all these images! Check out the links to see more of each artists' work.

Meek Page 7: Fourteen femme faces

This is just a compilation of different women, different emotions, different faces. Inspiration came from the hundreds of drawings I've seen of women. I don't have a particular style that I like best when drawing people and this entry makes that clear.

Meek Page 6: There's no place like here

I don't have a specific place that's home. It's more of a feeling that I carry from place to place. I don't get attached to places, only people. I also really like tea.

Meek Page 5: Birds of Demise

It took me a while to decide if this one was finished. Inspiration came from a version of one of my favorite Russian folk songs about death and a black raven. As a side note, if you can't read the verse on the left side, that's because it's in Russian. Enjoy!

Meek Page 4: Femme in ism!!

I'll let this one speak for itself...

Meek Page 3: All smoke and vanity mirrors

I began this with the large female profile and the cigarette (which later was conjoined with a candle) without thinking they would be related. After drawing the smoke through her face, I saw a possible link. Looking back at it I think it's a very overused theme. The whole sex sells, cigarettes kill, and of course, the we-are-all-so-insecure plot gets around (a lot), but even so, the significance of these problems is actually taken too lightly nowadays, almost like a joke. I'll leave you to decipher the rest of the entry.



We seek perfection eternally... but die eventually.

Meek Page 2: Thought paths and trees

My second entry in the book and the last one without a specific theme. The next ones will have noticeable (although not according to everyone... so I might add some of my thoughts), overarching themes.

Happy Mother's Day to all the past, present, and future mamas!

Meek Page 1: First One...

This sketchbook pulls these things out of me.


Happy May 9th! Den' Pobedi!!
