Swimmers of a "certain age"
Sketching of swimmers with Graphite Pencil.
When one of my fun girl friend's referred to our group of 'mature' women as "women of a certain age" I grabbed hold of that saying and have used it often. I just love it.

Gelato anyone?
Found these at Hobby Lobby while looking for some paint
pens. They looked like fun! Absolutely use your 40% off coupon because they
don't give these gel paints away! Now tell me one person
that can resist Gelato!

Sketching and Watercolor Pencils
Girls Night Out
Sketching with Graphite pencil and then filling in
with Watercolor Pencils (pencils give more control over the
watercolor medium).
France - I've Been Everywhere Man, I've Been Everywhere (Almost). . . .
France, 2016
So sorry for my lapse in posting. Been fortunate enough to travel through 3 European countries. England, France and Germany.
I think of Shakespeare's sonnet: How do I love thee, let me count the ways . . . .So love Europe! Oh and yes, we did visit his home and the cottage of his wife Ann Hathaway (not to be confused with the movie star - whom I also love).
So I have done a few sketches of my time there and will post them soon.
I will share these two with you -- oh, not a sketch but a photo! Paris - our last evening, hubby just felt like he had to try this Parisian dish! Eh - no not me, thank you!

Partridge
And A Partridge Not In a Pear Tree
Graphite Pencil Sketch
Not in a Pear Tree came to mind when a friend made the comment "well, where is the pear tree" - in case you forgot . . . it's the well sung, well loved Christmas song . . . The Twelve Days of Christmas. In reality, I only wanted to sketch a bird to see if there was any interest in sketching birds! Eh, maybe not too much!
