Witch Hazel Sketch

Witch Hazel blooms bright,

Perfume fills fresh winter air.

January shines!

Minute by Minute

They pose, we create.

Simplicity rules the day.

Minute by minute.

Pigment to Paper

Pigment to paper.

Easy enough, one might say.

On a lucky day!

Amaryllis, wake up!
Stretch, Belladonna Lily,
Cool morning, fresh start!

Winter Flight

Winter Flight

Winter day echo,

Birds fly overhead, squawking.

Shrouded by the fog.

Real Time

Where will you be when,

All the tomorrows are gone?

Please, leave me a sign!

Finding Center

Finding Center

 

Amid the chaos,

A life moves on day to day,

Ebb,  flow,  find center.

 

Challenge #3

"Ya, it's a Water Tower"

Days & years gone by,

History now, all unfolded.

Landmarks bring us back.

Formal Challenge #2

You looking at ME?

Another study,

Darks overlap, forms gone abstract.

(Mooo)ve through! Record! LOOK.

Composition & light,

Preparation sets the tone.

Hanging Together

Hanging pots & pans,

chimes, and a colander too.

Reflecting days light.

Honor the Practice

In the studio

My work reminds me,

of where we left off last time.

Raindrops

                                           A Raindrop Day  

I see the raindrops, 

As they hang just inches apart,

 Bark branches sparkle!

Exercising the Discipline

'A Moment In Time'

Today has been a good day. Refreshed and ready.

 I humbly sketched the live model...,

Through exercising the discipline of art, my story begins!

Breakfast with Flowers!

 Pencil Sketch:  Breakfast with Flowers!

This morning the air is crisp and cold. January has arrived!
Though the winter chill swirls about outdoors, my Birthday Bouquet blooms brightly.
A nice companion for our quiet table!

Sketching in the New Year!

Holiday sketching

Christmastime slumber,

Then the new Year rings in bright!

Pause, appreciate.
