New watercolor sketch


I've gotten out of practice sketching, trying to do better at that... I did this pear study last night. Just a quick study, although I can see the pears need shading, they look flat. I've been working on my other art, collage, quilting etc and have not been keeping up on my sketching. It's hard to do it all!
If you'd like to see what else I've been up to check out my other blog:
Thanks for stopping by, have an awesome weekend!

Tree trimming sketch


I did this sketch awhile back, in September. I had to go out and trim some of the trees and thought I'd take a break and do a quick sketch. My neighbor thought that was a little odd but oh well! I need to get back into sketching, I've gotten away from it a bit.
I'm still doing art, if you'd like to see what else I do check out my other blog:
Hope you had a wonderful weekend!

Hubby's hand surgery
























Keep in mind, I'm not good at drawing people... I was so glad I took my sketchbook with us the day hubby went in for surgery on his hand. It was outpatient and wasn't supposed to take that long but we ended up being there almost all day. I did this spread, and another 3-4 while we were there. If I hadn't had my sketchbook I would have been bored to death!!!
Anyway, his surgery went well and he's almost healed up...

I've been doing art, honest...


My bad!!! I have been doing art, just not a lot of posting... I haven't been doing as much but I am still sketching, honest! I've been working and studying for work, and quilting... Anyway, I'm back!
I am thinking about merging this blog with my other one, it takes a lot of time to keep up two blogs... I'll let you know if I do. I have several sketches to scan but wanted to get something on my blog, I think this is the longest I've gone without blogging! I feel so guilty!
Anyway, sorry that it's been so long and thanks for coming by, have an awesome day!

Zentangled garden


This is one of the last spreads in the journal I just completed. I need to get busy and get out and sketch some real flowers! Fall is in the air and has been for awhile ~ which means an end to the flowers to sketch outside... I like fall, the leaves change and we have gorgeous sunrises, I'm not too thrilled about winter though.
