In the sketchbook

I’ve never painted or drawn a pine cone before. Not exactly a thing that’s ever been on my bucket list (ha, ha), but if it had been it would be a great accomplishment today!

I had to visit a neighboring town and couldn't help but check out their Coke mural on the side of one of the downtown buildings!  It's always a treat to find one of these when you don't expect...

Sit Ups

Crunch. Crunch. Crunch.

The Monday After.

I'm assuming that I'm not the only one that feels a need to take it easy the Monday following a holiday weekend. Oh, the irony of that...needing a holiday to recover from a holiday!

On the easel

All of my art lately doesn't qualify for an easel, but requires just as much time and attention as a painting. I've worked diligently this week in an effort to create a bit of magic and you get to ...
