snow on nest drawing & flock of geese photo

Would have worked this drawing to death if I didn't have to go somewhere.  Hoping to revisit this nest/theme many times, as they change through the seasons. It seemed almost as though the branches were  treasuring it.

Thank goodness I left the dog home ...this photo would have been quite different if Clark had come along.

clouds, fence, trees and snow

I had a friend who would find odds and ends like remnants of furniture on the street, often as he walked to his studio, in New York. He'd create helpful devices like a rolling table to draw on, or other inventions to make it easier to work. I thought of him as I stood in the road trying to balance my notebook and brushes. I think he was smiling at me.

phrost phairy photos

Early morning ride to the bus. There was an iridescent screen of frost crystals covering the car.

This one has been very frustrating and I'm about ready to throw in the towel.

Maybe some sleep will help.

paper issue

The paper started buckling  before I finished this one. Sometimes I get a little too rough, I suppose.

rock outcropping

This is a rock outcropping I've passed and wanted to draw or paint many times, and finally decided to pull over for a quick sketch. The quick sketch stretched into hours, but it didn't seem that long.
