I've been out drawing various places on Friday mornings and relishing every minute! My friend Debbie and I parked our drawing chairs in the Gardens, finding all kinds of autumn beauty to draw and paint. A few weeks ago, we ventured just across the street from where I live, to draw the horses at Smith Hollow … Continue reading Out and About

A New View
I am a creature of habit. I wake up around the same time each morning. I love my morning routine of walking, journaling, reading, writing. I eat meals at approximately the same times each day. I have favorite sketchbooks I stick with. I shop for groceries at the same places. I drive the same routes … Continue reading A New View

Talk about … Continue reading Operation Sock Drawer
Snow-capped Bales
Snow-capped Bales. Watercolor. 9"x12". Mr. Whicker had some hay bales dropped off on the wide end of his field up on Silver Dapple Lane. Seeing as how I LOVE hay bales, I just had to draw them with their snow hats on. As I walked in the freshly fallen snow last Wednesday, Mr. Whicker came … Continue reading Snow-capped Bales
*Magic*
Narnia My Backyard. Watercolor. 9"x12" As the world outside my windows begins, ever so slowly, to be veiled in white, a sense of anticipation and longing fills the hours. Everyday tasks take on a not-so-everyday glow. A trip to the grocery store becomes an adventure. Laundry becomes lighthearted. Cooking simmers with unprecedented warmth...chili, cornbread, rice … Continue reading *Magic*
