Sunday Sketches


Hello and WELCOME to another fabulous week of sketching!  After a few days in a row of stresses, I decided to make Saturday a "me" day. Uh huh. I spent the day going on short walks with the pups and being creative.  Boy did it feel good! :)

This is my finished clothesline piece.   As you can see I've added a few extra doodles.  The only thing I'm stumped on is what kind of saying to put on the front of the card.  Ho hum.  Ideas?

Happy sketching everyone! :)

    Whoa. Your blog has CHANGED! The Princess of Purple is too my left. She is in my room too...just chilling on my wall. I love how your clothesline piece turned out...the pink watercolored bottom makes the grass stand out a lot.

    XOXO,

    Nice new blog layout! I like your clothesline card. Not sure about a saying. Something like, "It will all come out in the wash." maybe but I don't know what occasion you'd use that for, LOL. I do hope next week is less stressful for you and I'm glad you took Sat. for yourself.

    Good for you, taking a day to relax and charge the batteries. It makes all the difference in the world. Your drawing looks great with the colors filled in. I can't think of a saying for the front of the card.

    Good Morning Sophia!

    I'm lovin' your new "look" and your clothesline piece is so bright and cheery it (almost) makes laundry look like a fun chore! ha!

    I'm glad you had some "me" time and hope the relaxation continues...

    xo

    p.s. This week's Paint Party Friday pictures are of a laundry room mural I did many years ago... clotheslines are on the brain this week I guess! ha!

    I'm thinking it should be something about spring or summer - it could be either.

    no sunday sketch from me this week but I want to stop by and say hello, so - hello!
