Urban Sketching - Guiseppe's Depot

Finally warmed up enough the other day that I got to go out and do some sketching on location! I chose to do a quick sketch of the tower of Giuseppe's Depot in Colorado Springs. Another 13 spreads and I'll be done with my first reloaded book! I played with my water brush and I love it!!! So much fun to use!

As you know, we're trying to sell our house so we can relocate to right outside Philly. I wonder if the house won't sell until I finish this reloaded sketch book? This was originally supposed to be paintings of just Colorado Springs.... jeesh! Talk about superstitious! LOL!

Thanks for stopping by! Now it's your turn - go sketch something! :D

My first sketch of 2011 and I just had to do it!

Some of you may remember this chocolate frog from a few years ago - these came out when the second Harry Potter book came out, I think. I got one of these for my brother-in-law and kept one for myself. It's such a fun little frog to draw! He's been living in my freezer for years ~ but since we're moving I just couldn't let him melt! And I must say, he tasted really good even after all those years in the freezer! :D

It feels good to be sketching again!

Thanks for stopping by!

I'm back!!!!!!!!!

I've decided to continue to post on this blog after all ~ I know, make up my mind already! LOL!

These are some roses I sketched before Thanksgiving, I didn't quite finish the one on the left, but I kind of like it that way... I was interrupted by the real estate company calling for a showing, yes we're still trying to sell our house, the economy is terrible! Once we do sell we'll be moving to Downingtown or West Chester Pennsylvania, just outside Philly. Lots of new stuff to draw!

I've gotten out of practice on my drawing and I'm hoping to get back to it! I'd love to set up my drafting table and do a real painting, but part of it is packed - the story of my life these last several months...

Thanks for stopping by!
