Sketch'n Part IX

I did a series of watercolors recently that I wanted to share with you. The first is a series of birds. I gifted one to Sarah for her birthday.

Birds

Another is a series of octopi - I love these little guys!

Octopi

Going back to the Sketchbook exchange I participate in - I finished my last sketchbook. I can't wait to get my own sketchbook back and see all the art that was done by the other 12 members of our swap.

In addition to several of the watercolors - I added these drawings to Peggy's sketchbook.

I made these Nesting Dolls run across the page - each with their own design. The mosaic cuts out two of the dolls in the middle - but you get the idea....

Nesting Dolls


And finally - I also drew some yellow birds...

Yellow Birds


I'm just back from New Orleans today. I was there for several days for a business trip. It was sooooo hot there I couldn't believe it. With the heat index it was over 110!

I'm glad to be home with my boys again!

    Welcome home!
    I love all your paintings!
    Obviously, my bird is the best, but I also like the Octopii, and love the nesting dolls.

    Keep on drawing, your stuff is so great!

  3. The bird watercolors are especially lovely! Maybe on notecards, an etsy.com offering? I'd buy them!
