pen & color pencil small 5x3
#1 flower
#2 Hands in different positions - a bit of a stretch 😁
- small porcelain clown doll brought by my Irish friend
Ai - i like the flower & gazebo - and making the best of an unlucky event!
this is #1 public space (indoors)
met a couple friends at the Museum of Fine Art in Boston - practicing drawing on 8x6 paper using pencil with soft lead (B2?) and eraser (a lot of eraser! did her head over 3 times!)
Joan - i like the graphic quality
Ai - good job simpifying scene, and piggy bank is so cute
checkrd put a new coffee shop but skipped the cookies and sugary syrups - except as models!
joan - charming cameo
fletch - love your colors
ai - hope you revive soon
a quick sketch of ostrich and green feathers bouquet for Elegant - makes me think of the clothes/hats that would go the cameo 😊
went to another garden center today
stood in the corner near a cart of begonias juggling near-empty fountain pens (yeah, my bad planning) and a waterbrush
and then i got out a chair, pencil, eraser, and a touch of colored pencil...
Joan - your scenes always make me think "i want to be there!"
Grapes - i like the icebreakers but ice? nope, don't want to be there!
Jo - sweet bow!
Ai - great cats - bummer for the one in the "cone-of-shame" - and now i'm hungry for shrimp!
