The latest sketchcrawl was a week ago, but it’s been a busy week, so I’m just getting around to posting it tonight. Showers had come and gone all day. It was hot and sticky out and the thing I really wanted to draw was a cool refuge.
This sweet spot was on the street side of a big old oddly rural looking building in the town next to mine. The lucky folks who own it and obviously cherish it with care live across the street from a parkway surrounding a river that snakes through green neighborhoods. Wouldn’t you like to enjoy a quiet hour or two here?
An afternoon at the animal shelter with my niece provided a much less peaceful opportunity to draw. Kittens don’t sit still for long and Cookie Dough the bunny paused just long enough to identify the next impossible-to-reach place he was going to hide in.

Nice sketches! I do so wish that I could draw like that. xx

Thank you Flighty. I’ve been trying to get back to things I used to enjoy. As for the picture of the animals, an art teacher I am taking a class from was not at all impressed– to many outlines and not enough inside the lines work. However, just managing any picture of the critters was a challenge. It does give me something to work towards, though
Thank you for visiting. I really appreciate it.
