Finally!!

Posted in Moleskine, sketchcrawl, starbucks on July 23, 2006 | 4 Comments »

After months of trying and failing, busy schedules and otherwise hectic lives, Linda and I managed another sketchcrawl of Knoxville. It was actually more photo-crawl than sketchcrawl, but that’s good too! We found out one day when we were talking that both of us had been quite fascinated with a row of old warehouses [...]

A Day in Court

Posted in Moleskine, friends on July 17, 2006 | 6 Comments »

I spent the morning with some friends sitting in the General Sessions Division I court. Nope, I’m not in trouble, we were just there to support a young lady we know through a women’s shelter here in K’ville. She’s a 29-year old addict who has been on the streets for a while and is [...]

Rufus Watercolor

Posted in WDE, portrait, watercolor on July 15, 2006 | 9 Comments »

Okay – I sprung for 4 tubes of Winsor and Newton Artists’ Water Colour paint earlier this week – something I’ve been reluctant to do because I really don’t know how to use them and the real stuff is kind of pricey. I’ve had some 140lb Arches cold press sitting around for a couple [...]

Response to EDM Challenge #75 – in my large Moleskine sketchbook.

This is my maternal grandmother’s (Mama Dee) recipe for pound cake. She’s been making it as long as I can remember, and when I go down to Alabama, she still makes it for me. I’ve loved it since I was a child. Mama Dee is [...]

Can I Get A Witness?

Posted in Moleskine, angst, rants on July 12, 2006 | 5 Comments »

Okay, I’ll just go ahead and confess to having an angst-ridden morning – likely heavily influence by a 6 am wake-up, but here goes. I’m a stay-at-home-mom and part-time homeschooler (my kids go to school 3 days a week, we hs the other two), a wife, an artist, a musician, friend, blogger, etc. So, [...]

Four Completely Unrelated Sketches

Posted in Moleskine, watercolor on July 10, 2006 | 8 Comments »

I hate to do that, but I was feeling the need to catch up, and I didn’t want to do 4 separate posts! I know you will all bear with me! This week, D is at camp, so J and I are going to be wandering around aimlessly, wondering what do do with each other. [...]

D – Bedhead and All

Posted in family, pencil, portrait on July 3, 2006 | 15 Comments »

We went camping over the weekend, to the Big South Fork River. We had a wonderful time in the woods, in spite of the ticks, and the fact that the fish weren’t biting (that actually didn’t bother me in the slightest). On Saturday, before we headed back to K-ville, we took a ride on [...]
