Three More Flower Journal Sketches

I did these last weekend of my neighbor's tree and plant, and some colorful "weeds" in my backyard lawn.

Mini Daffodils

Every few years I start a flower journal as soon as I see something peeking out from the ground.  It's been a tough winter, so I'm not sure what has survived this year, but today I found some mini-daffodils that I bought last year.  I was sure that they wouldn't make it, but they and one purple crocus have appeared.  That gives me hope that there will be more flowers as it gets warmer.  So this is the start of my 2015 flower journal. (pen and wash in my Super Aquabee sketchbook).

Fake Journal 2015

This month I've been working on my fake journal - and there are only a few more days left.  www.michellesfakejournalblog.blogspot.com

I have a few projects lined up for May, and have started one of them already.  See the next post for today.

More Faces

I haven't been keeping up with every day face sketching, but here are my latest.

Imitating Homer

Today's prompt for the AJW January challenge was to depict one of our favorite 19th century paintings.   I got to see Winslow Homer's paintings several years ago at the  Brooklyn Museum.  I really liked all of them, but my favorites were his Adirondack paintings.  This one is called "The Blue Boat".

Face A Day #4, 5 and 6

More faces - Grandsons Ethan, Brandon and Matt. It's hard to get a good likeness from a small photo. 

Continuing the January sketch challenge

The January sketch challenge continues, with Day 4 - an animal, Day 5 - a bridge, and Day 6 - seeds
