Ahhh, one of my favorite foods in the fall no winter. I love roasted root vegetables. I love taking carrots and parsnips, onions, garlic, sweet potatoes and beets and roasting them with chicken.

My drills are for eye/hand aka “seeing” and the boxes are thinking creatively and drawing spontaeously. I use the SktchyContinue reading “Morning routine”
Jenny
There, hidden in the palms! Jenny saw another creature, just like her! This is an abbreviated version of what I just wrote about Jenny. Jenny is already, unexpectedly, becoming a story.
