Sketch, Pastel and note

Joanna and I are going to the Armadillo Christmas Bazaar today and then to the Revel. The music will be so different, but so much fun! Will we see you there?

I sketched for Scavenger Hunt 203, but never posted them. Where does the time go? Here they are, freehand with a pen in my big sketchbook.  I am the host for December 25 - January 2 so maybe you will see more sketches.


Number 1, bag and Number 2, tool.  This bag has colored pen and colored pencil.

Number 1 bag and number 1 bag.  The challenge was to draw more than one bag.





Yesterday I worked on these grapes in pastel. They are 7 x 5 inches on pastelbord.  I am pretty happy with the grapes, but not with the bowl and background.  Don't know why I posted it except to show that I did something.  We shall see how it goes after I work on it again.

I hope your day is great and you are ready for Christmas.  I haven't even put up the tree yet.   Sigh.......

The Armadillo Christmas Bazaar sounds like so much fun. I haven't seen Ray in years, but would love to. You know he used to live in RR. I love hearing the Derailers too.

Sounds like a fun plan, be sure to check out my friend Fred Tate's booth. Have a fabulous holiday. I'm looking forward to some plein air painting with you after the new year!
