Finally! Another Sketch!

It's been a long time coming.  Went to Pioneer Park this morning with Jean and Frida.  We met lots of dogs.  It was lovely and cool under the trees.  For more writing of this nature see 'Dick and Jane'.

Maybe I will color it later...

Keep Palm and Carry On

 

For No Good Reason?

These are "failed" monotypes, or are they?  Turning them this way and that, I have no idea. But they tend to 'grow on me'.  Who cares?

Show & Tell Monotypes

Here are two monotypes from today's workshop with Amber George.  Going back to Bonita for the second day tomorrow.

The Littlest Sprout

Finnegan

Lavender House

acrylic on paper 9"x12"

Ever since I discovered artist Jim Wagner's work in Taos I have wanted to paint "primitive", which to me means simple, somewhat awkward and heartfelt.  I haven't quite figured it out yet, but I'll get there.  This house is in National City in a spot where there are others of interest. I want to go back there.

Bazaar del Mundo Fountain

Derwent Inktense Pencils

New Mexico Redux

Sometime in the '90's I visited New Mexico and was enchanted by this piece of architecture.  These are the photos I took then.

On my recent trip, in Old Town Albuquerque, I found myself eating in an outdoor patio restaurant and facing the same adobe wall.  I was again fascinated,took photos and sketched, not remembering my previous interest until I came home and hauled out the New Mexico album from long ago!

Here AGAIN:
