Sketching before dinner



Waiting at the airport



Waiting for our flight.  Waiting is so much easier with a cold beverage and my sketchbook!! 


I almost forgot my sandals




Thank goodness I have a check list!!!

I REALLY tried

Love this photo Amy.  To me, you have achieved magical status with your ballpoint line work!!!  I thought I would give the ballpoint a go myself.  I need loads more practice!! This took me two days to complete (I’m packing for a vacation away from our horrid winter weather) and although my inner critic is cringing; I’m posting my results. I added some stamped ink for the background using a faux LEGO piece with StazOn ink pad then a blue Stabilo All pencil “halo”. Yup, that didn’t calm my mind at all.  So I’m turning the page. #ballpoint #30faces30days

Today’s Sktchy Face

I’m away from home this weekend so I had limited supplies! However I did bring my Pentel brush pen and I found a turquoise Painters acrylic marker in the bottom of my purse. I have to say I really like the graphic nature of my results. Thanks bunches Benjamin and to your friend for the opportunity!! #30faces30days




This is something very different for me. 

Easter bunny bread - Today’s Page



The family walked down to the bakery this morning to see if the bakery was open.  It was!!!




Subway sketch and Easter tree

Yesterday’s drawings. We are visiting the family in the big city.  I had my paint palette with me but no water brush. I’m super happy with my drawing of the women “sleeping” on the subway home.  It is my second ever.  I really liked that the “sketch the Line” poster was above her head. These posters are on most subways and I think it is very cool that the Toronto Transit Commission (the TTC or the Rocket) but some art up in the trains. 



I thought this little decorative tree was super cute that we saw yesterday
