Blue, Wet Sketch

A quick post of my only sketch for Scavenger Hunt 302 which was over on February 17.  (We had company .. that is my excuse and I'm sticking to it.)  I sketched at the doctor's office while Gene had his routine checkup.  So it was in the small sketchbook I keep in my purse with a regular Pilot ball point pen.  I added a touch of watercolor after I got home.

Number 1, blue - the paper towel holder and Number 2, wet - the faucet and sink.

Today I have a one on one pastel class so should now be in mode to tidy up my studio and get out my pastel gear.  My lesson plan is prepared, I hope the artist will learn and have a good time.  I'm sure I will learn something, too.  When I teach, it reminds me of things I do, things I should do and why I do them.  That is always good.  I tend to get in a rut and do things the easiest way.  Easy is not a bad thing, but I tend to fall into a set way to do things without pushing myself a bit.  Teaching makes me think and pull those learned processes out of mothballs and push forward.

I have some shows coming up as well, so will be back soon with info on the exhibit front!
