Snow Scene - Day 26 of 75
This snow scene is from one of my photographs. I am working on a watercolor of this and thought it would make a good pen and ink sketch too.

Justin Painting - Day 25 of 75
Today five of my grandkids were visiting. I set them up with paints and paper, thinking that I would be able to sketch without worrying about them moving too much. Wrong! Justin found about 1,000 positions to move his arms, hands and face. I ended up making his head too big, or his arms too small. I will have to try this again next time they visit.

The Dip Pen - Day 24
A few years ago my sister Joan brought me a cool glass dip pen from her trip to Italy. I had intended to learn how to use it then, but I put it away and forgot about it. When I started this challenge, I knew that I would have to practice with it, so today I got it out and made a few marks to see how it felt, and then did a couple of little sketches.

African Violets - Day 23
On Thursdays I paint with some of my friends. But today, before I started my snow scene painting, I did a quick sketch of Anna's African violets.

Winter Shoe - Day 22 of 75
One of my winter rain/snow shoes, kind of a cut off of an LLBean boot, with shearling liner.
