Hi Everyone!
If you follow me at all you know that create "car art" it is simple drawings that I do while driving from point A to point B. Some of you have asked how I do this with all the holes, bumps, and well just plain terrible roads. Sometimes it is not so easy. I draw holding the tablet of paper up. I don't lay it on my lap. I draw between chuck holes and if we are in the city I love red lights. LOL Mike will warn me if he sees a big dip or curve in the road. It's actually fun and a challenge. There is a lot of erasing. So on my birthday trip to my mom's last week this is what I got done. I have a connection to this face. I have others that are similar. Hope you enjoy
A big thank you to Eva and Kristen for there continual hard work to keep Paint Party Friday on the cyber waves. Be sure to stop by to see all of the very talented artists.
Ohhh and my scanner went out so this is a terrible shot from my camera
OK so I decided to show a few more "car art" pieces
These are older and scanned. They show up so much better that way.
Be inspired and create from your heart

Very nice! I'm always the one driving so that would never work for me!! But you did a wonderful job!!

I love the idea of 'car art'! Your sketches are great and quite alien looking. You must have a very steady hand!
Such emotions these evoke! I draw and paint in the car on road trips too! Fun!
Oh wow, I LOVE these faces! They remind me of "the scream" from Munch ....
it does amaze me that you can do this and I don't know that I will try it any time soon as our roads don't come without holes and hollows... I will; simply enjoy yours instead...xx
What a great idea your "car art"! And it looks great! I wouldn't be able to get one line right LOL
Happy PPF!
terrific and unusual faces Nicole, great to see.
Happy PPF, Annette x

The last two are very interesting. I couldn't draw in the car while it is going because I get car sick.
Wow! I love your faces. I get so frustrated drawing in the car that I have totally given up on it, but this has inspired me to try again!
Wow! I just love your faces. I have given up on drawing in the car but you have inspired me to try again x
Very expressive faces, Nicole! Oh, I think I would be sick, if I had to draw in the car, fantastic that you can do it and create such expressive spirits!
Happy PPF

Your car art is incredible. I would love to know the story behind this face. How nice of your husband to warn you of bumps and potholes.
Love the expressions you have created here. The second one in particular is amazing.
I really like these Nicole. They do remind me of aliens from another world. Awesome. You should do more and how great that you do them in your car as your husband drives. Thanks. Have a great weekend.
Interesting art, i can't drive in the car without getting sick! HPPf!
lovely pieces, sometimes taking a photo produces better copies than the scanner.
Intimidate those faces, angry look something right?. Saludos
I'm with Kim, could never do that in the car! Great fun though!
Great faces!!! I used to be able to draw in the car butt not so much anymore.... car sickness strikes again :(
These are great! Very different and interesting! Almost alien like!
On seeing these faces I feel like saying oooWEEooo.. lol I get car sick to so no drawing or reading in a car I am afraid. I admire you for doing this. HPPF I am wondering where in OR.. We are South of Eugene. :)
I think being in car and dealing with the added elements of potholes and movement add to these. They are very expressive and some look haunted. Thanks for sharing. I love pencil work!
That first one has so much character :oD Happy PPF
Amazing pieces, very unsettling - but that is good!
Wow. Powerful art Nicole!.
I was going to say the scream by Munch too..I have that car sticker on my van as its me trying to get the kids to school without too much squabbling! happy ppf
These are haunting- did you mean them to be -or did they just end up like this? Happy PPF.
What a great way to keep busy during car trips. I get horribly sick if I even look at a piece of paper in the car. No drawing, reading or even using my phone in the car. Blech. I'm jealous! These are fun faces!
I love these faces - they are a little real and a little surreal! Amazing that you were able to do these while riding in the car. I am trying to make the most of my time to draw. I will have to try the car - I agree that these faces remind me of the scream from Munch. And they have an alien look to them. They are really terrific. HPPF
I still cannot imagine how you manage to do that.. so amazing! I just love your portraits. So much character in them.. makes me smile :)
Stunning cartoons ....!
I tried car art once but it was hard to steer :) All joking aside I am always impressed by your artwork!
your 'car art' looks so interesting. Great, inspiring and creative idea for practicing. Thank you for sharing.
Wonderful sketches - my favorite is the last. I love woman Portraits :)
Late HPPF and hugs

Very expressive sketches and well done!

Great sketches! You're lucky you can draw while you're in a car. I get car sick. :)
