iMac Sketch, Pastel Painting .. Again

I was  procrastinating, as usual, about sketching.  I was out on the porch with Gene.   I didn't want to have to go get anything to sketch.  I came to the computer to read our family messaging and saw the batteries on my desk.  I decided to sketch them right on my iMac and not have to go anywhere or get anything!  Yay!

I have Sketchbook Pro on my iMac, but only have a regular mouse.  Not easy to draw with, but I like the challenge sometimes.

We took my pastel painting to Baxters on Main for the fundraiser for Terri Knop.  It is ready to hang or keep on the easel that was included.  Come on down tonight and bid on it....

It is a beautiful morning of about 71 degrees F.  That is supposed to be our high today with rain in the forecast and cooler, maybe down to the high thirties tonight.  We will see.....

This was the start to the morning.

Your paintings look great all framed up. I think they will do well.

Bag Blog, thanks. We left a bit early from the event. Many, many folks turned out in support of Terri. That is nice, she has supported the community so ..... My painting did well as did all the donations. They hadn't started the live auction so hopefully lots of good will showed there. :)
