My New Sketch Blog

I recently started Brenda Swenson's 75 Day Sketch Challenge, and today I posted the first 10 sketches to my new sketch blog:  www.iSketch4fun.blogspot.com

Merry Christmas!

I'm late getting my Christmas cards out this year.  Well, okay, I'm always late, but this is the latest I can remember.  They are printed, but not mailed yet.  I've done something a bit different this year, and instead of having one of my many grandchildren pose for the card, I used an old black and white photo of myself and my sisters and brother on a visit to Santa.  That's me, the oldest one, in the green hat. 

Wishing all my art friends a very Merry Christmas!

Les Belles Artistes - New Show

My friends and I - "Les Belles Artistes" - after hanging our current show at the Gallery at the High Mountain Presbyterian Church.  The seven of us have been together at classes and workshops, and have been showing together for several years.   To see photos of all the paintings see : www.lesbellesartistes.blogspot.com

An Early Morning Walk

This is from a photo I took at Springmaid Beach, SC early in the morning in March.  My sister, Joan, woke me up every  morning for a walk on the beach, and that morning the bright orange sun was just hanging there waiting for us.
