Keri's Livingroom Sketch

This was done sitting on Keri's Couch. I was waiting on her, and decided to sketch that side of the room.  T-Bone was quietly chewing his bone with his legs all stretched out, and was still enough for me to capture him. (sort of). 
I really love this little sketchbook. It is Strathmore Mixed Media with 90 lb paper and it paints up awesome Not one ripple or wrinkle, even painting on the backs. I have been very impressed with it.
Enough that I got an 8.5x11. That will be hard for me to fill up!
Our Sketchbook Class is this coming Friday and Saturday.  I am so excited about it!
 I have room for 1-2 more if there are any takers! just let me know.

More Sketches and workshops

I am still sketching on sketchbook Skool stuff, even though it has come to an end. I did enjoy it, and learned a lot! Here are a few more. The last segment was buildings, and these are the ones I did. I am having problems using her method! Need more practice.
 My sketchbook workshop is Sept. 12-13, so if you are interested, I think I have one spot left! It looks like it will be a great time. There are some very new beginners, and that will be such fun, hopefully they will get excited and enjoy it!

The Green Roof

This is another photo I got while in Lovington, NM yesterday.  I told Ken I saw a house with a green roof, and we had to find it going home! So ...we did! there is a lot more cactus, mesquite, but just added a few. That is the fun part about the sketching- or ink with watercolor. Whatever you want to call it. I am still just using ink, with no pencil and eraser.  I encourage anybody who wants to improve to do the same. It is unbelievable how much it has helped me.  I am still trying to sketch each day, and I started Oct.13th, 2012!
This is 4"x10" on Bockingford watercolor paper. It is very pale mint green..
