Recent days

By simplelsie

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.

    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.
