#1 spoon - soup spoon multiple grades of graphite in 9x12in multi media pad. Was a bad choice for graphite spend half the time thinking I should’ve used color pencil with shades of grays and black. Keep sketching and learning Fletch

Joan- since you already have building corner I think shadow pattern would fit. And you are thinking to add shadows in the snow so perfect!😍 JennieJo - Keep the cups coming! Well rendered. Jo - Gene looks pretty intense. Ornaments they can keep forever as tags is something only an artist would...

Ai - The architecture is beautiful and you captured so much of the detail. Beautiful. Love the dynamics in the park painting. Joan - My first thought was Jo will comment on the prominent flag. Next I scratched my head where Sachemis. I had to look it up to find out it is not a city, town or...

Jo - Good use of sketching at PT. I tend to read as I get about 45 min uninterrupted! We went PT today. No holiday decorations but Sharon got a birthday card and we got an anniversary card, I have not put our tree up yet. Have decorations up outside but inside so far I have only put out a small...

Ai - Your students give you lots of practice drawing people. Excellent work. Neat contour drawings of the elephants Joan - How in the world do capture perspective and proportion doing continuous line? Amazing! The “regular sketch” in Procreate is great. Jo - Your marker work looks more like...

Joan - Your painting brings up memories of shops on Liberty and Jamaica avenues decorated for the holidays. Almost everything down here is malls or strip malls. Punta Gorda proper has a small section of shops that the city decorates but it’s not really a spot to go walking. It is mostly...

Joan- $0.25! We use to pay a penny! Says a lot about inflation the last 50 years. Belated birthday wishes.Your birthday cheesecake looks delicious. Assume those were stain glass windows? Archangel Michael is excellent. Frame-able!. Ai - The macchiato itself is a work of art. The one pancake...
