                                            8.5 x  11  Pen, Ink & Watercolor

This was done with the week day Sketchcrawlers of San Diego. I always wanted to draw this building and this past Friday I had that opportunity.......YEA !
It was such a lovely day and my dog Grace was part of the assembly of enthusiast sketchers since she had company too in a lovely dog name MoNi belonging to an other sketcher.
I am so thankful to live here.
Lydia Velarde was one of the sketchers with us and made a fabulous uTUbE ViDEo of us posted on her blog check it out.

KICKED OUT !!!


8.5 x 11 Pen , Ink & watercolor

Well here's another sketch done with the SD Sketchcrawlers but this time the story is a bit different.
6 of us decided to go to the Self Realization Fellowship here in Carlsbad. They have a lovely garden that is used for meditations.
Well we sketched quietly amongst many families with children talking loud and taking pictures.
When finished we have a sharing time to show our work with our sack lunches. We asked if we could do that in the driveway as to not disturbed the visitors in the garden. NO, we were told.
OK.... outside on the street we went past the sidewalk (public )and ate. Well a few minutes later the guard came out and asked us to leave from there too.
The garden was lovely but.............. we are now signing our e-mail post to the group
The notorious SFC 6 !
