A collection of random items on my pages, without much organization. Wardrobe as the seasons begin to change, deliveries, and art supplies. Yep, that pretty much captures March!

Foundations Begins
Once again I’m starting Liz Steel’s Sketching Now Foundations course. It’s getting embarrassing how often I begin but never start! However, I always learn something, even when my participation is a bit disappointing. Hopefully this time will be better and I’ll actually do the whole course? I must note, I am challenged to finish because… Continue reading Foundations Begins
Week 10, March 2021
My very first attempt to do One Week, One Hundred People. Since I’m not leaving the house and do not see people, I decided to do fast gesture drawings of the television show I was watching. I’ve never done anything like it, and had no idea if I even could! While I decided that nearly… Continue reading Week 10, March 2021
Everyday Sketching Week 9
A mixed week of deliveries and what not. I tried adding a map of my daily walk to the mailbox. I learned that maps take a long time! Need to find faster methods! I am, of course, still shielding at home, so I’m working on finding the small, daily things to sketch. This time in… Continue reading Everyday Sketching Week 9
February Pages
New supplies, and mysteries, a lot of color testing Potter’s Pink, and seeking out those lavenders, February brought a mix of sketches. This is the page that launched the lavender search. I was trying to color match the post card, and didn’t quite get the results I wanted. I do love to sketch art supplies!… Continue reading February Pages
Classwork & More
Continuing in my Sketchbook 2 tour, I have some classwork from both Foundations, as well as Watercolor on Location. This was a failed effort to paint a landscape while out on location. I realized that I still have much to learn, since I had no idea how to fix the issues I had. This wine… Continue reading Classwork & More
Sketchbook 1a Complete
The complete sketchbook. I learned so much in the two years it took me to finish this book. I had multiple sketchbooks going during this time. I was really still struggling to establish the regular practice and habit that I wanted, as well as to build my drawing skills. I’m pretty sure I may always… Continue reading Sketchbook 1a Complete
Lessons in Paper
I believe this was my very first attempt at sketching my house. It may be my only attempt to date, now that I think about it. After this, my sketchbook efforts get quite sketchy indeed. I wanted to sketch daily, but missed the mark, so I’d leave pages blank. Sometimes I’d fill them in with… Continue reading Lessons in Paper
My Very First Sketchbook
My very first dedicated sketchbook was definitely a rough thing. I started it in 2018 with an attempt to Draw Your Day, as I was inspired by Samantha Dion’s book by the same title. My colors were too pale, and it was bleeding through, and I thought I was painting “wrong.” It would take me… Continue reading My Very First Sketchbook
