Trying to get back outside more to sketch. I started this post last Thursday evening but as I was typing it, my daughter sent us a text “I feel like there’s no way you guys didn’t hear that explosion? I just saw it on FB” So, I didn’t finish this because we sort of wereContinue reading “Car butt sketch”

Today’s sketches
I am a member of a Pattern Club called Pattern & Process. It used to be Photoshop Club but it has evolved. We had a Zoom session today and we sketched some reference photos. It was interesting to see how people used the photos. These are mine:
Today’s Sketch
Frog Hollow with all of this rain! Quick 4×6 sketch using Viviva Colors…more or less experimenting with the concept of color cards instead of paint and or tubes. It was a stormy day today and the neighborhood frogs loved it.
Getting out to sketch
It was time to get out out to do some sketching. We took Mack for a ride to sit on the causeway. You can always find a nice breeze here. Even in the middle of summer, we still get a breeze. As I am writing this, an osprey just snagged a fish out of theContinue reading “Getting out to sketch”
A Sunday Morning in November
Today, John and I decided to get out of the house. I have been working on some ornaments over the past couple of days and John installed some sun shades yesterday for our patio. We really didn’t veg out too much yesterday so this morning we just sat outside and enjoyed our morning coffee. WeContinue reading “A Sunday Morning in November”

We used to own racehorses and I would sit in the paddock and sketch the horses as they were getting tacked up and harnessed for races. A lot of theContinue reading “Horse”
Inchies Day 11

Inchies Day 10

Inchies Day 4
It’s so much fun to do tiny art! Today’s prompt is “Sprinkle.”
Inchie – Day 2 (Yesterday)
I completely forgot to post this yesterday! Here is yesterday’s Inchie. I did several because it was such a fun prompt, TWIST. Now that I think of it, I could have also did a twist ice cream cone, too.
