May 2021-Enjoying walking with my sister Pam with a warm Latte at Zest coffee house.
Also inspiring to read Carolyn’s blog as she walks the Appalachian Trail at this time : https://carolyndaut.com/2021/05/14/first-steps/
and I always enjoy Carolyn's sketches, especially the ones that she did for my class as independent study while traveling: https://carolyndaut.com/portfolio/travel-sketching/
Schmeeckle Reserve in Spring bloom.
Three years ago, my sister, Pam, and I walked the 500 mile Camino Frances across northern Spain and it was during the Spring time. Each day was a wonder as we "walked into Spring" watching the trees bud with leaves and the flowers bloom along the way, through snow, rain and shine. It was a wonderful experience!
Now as Spring arrives and we are able to spend more time outdoors, I am enjoying the sounds of Spring in the bird calls and the fresh breeze as I sit outside to sketch in the northwoods of Wisconsin. Need to do more. Participated in SketchCrawl on Saturday, April 17, for the 71st World Wide SketchCrawl.
I always enjoy seeing all of the other sketches from around the world on the SketchCrawl website.
27 January 2021
Wednesday, Cold and sunny day.
Took a nice walk around Schmeeckle Reserve today and now I need to get down to some sketching again.
The 70th World Wide SketchCrawl was January 16, so I need to post some sketches for that! Will do that soon. 70th World Wide SketchCrawl Link
If you go over to the SketchCrawl link above there are some neat sketches to see from around the world that were done this Month.
And, I am excited to be sharing drawing ideas with a group of young artists/students on Monday, February 1. Looking forward to that. :)
I especially liked this sketch that was done by Valerie in France.
