" MEGAN's WASH "

8  x 11  Pen, Ink & a little Watercolor

In Vermont I always see so many things I want to draw.
This is at my nephew Gregory's house. Their clothes line. Megan his wife is so sweet and hospitable and their children are both fabulous. It's such a pleasure to go visit every one there. The time goes by too fast unfortunately.
She share with me that she could very well put all those clothes in the dryer but she forces herself to put them on the line outside when she can. Why you ask ?
Her life is very busy so it gives her a chance to slow down, it is a chore you cannot do fast. I thought it was such a wise action I had to make a sketch of it !

A SLICE OF LIFE !

It was fun doing this !

" le bouquet "

8  x  8   Pen & Ink

Every-time I visit my brother and his wife I can't help it I have to make a bouquet of the beautiful flowers they grow on their property. Unfortunately it will be the last time there for they sold their place and are looking forward to creating a new one.

Hurray for change

Do not look to the past but look to the future with eagerness. For the past cannot be improved upon but the future has all the hope needed for you.

" The Watering Can "

                                                   7  x  7  Pen & Ink

I love watering cans, this one is an old one. I have quite a few around. This one is outside my door as I walk out. I've been wanting to sketch it because of the fence, ivy and the flower pot it creates great shadows. Which is what I love. 

A rose by any other name......

"The Orange Tree "

                           8  x  11     Pen & Ink and little Watercolor

This was done at Andy lovely backyard during our San Diego Sketchcrawl. This tree was so nice to draw. I like it when something stands out to me that say's " Draw Me ".

30th World Wide SketchCrawl

8 x 10 Pen & Ink

Well yesterday was the 30th World Wide SketchCrawl. 

When that happens It always trills me to know that there are so many people all over the world drawing with the same purpose "to create something of the moment you are living in ". 

I usually draw/sketch outside but I was invited to a lovely party at a friend's house.

It was a pot luck BUT for me bringing something to eat is not my choice at this time so I brought flowers "purple tulips and white daisies" and in honor of the SketchCrawl I drew them while everyone mingled.
