Its been a long time since I posted - I just moved into a great new apartment with my family. I really needed to downsize. An entire house was way too much for me to keep up with - I mean really - I don't want to spend my days cleaning an entire house instead of drawing!
My new place has this wonderful view of a rushing river. With all the rain I have been watching the water rise and become more active. My drawing desk and art easel now face that beautiful view and if I open the window just a tiny bit I can hear the water running downstream. It is perfect.
Now the move is almost complete and I can get back to the work I love ... drawing, painting, and writing.
Keep your eyes out for my newest creations, they will be posted VERY soon!
Again, thanks so much for following my sketchblog.

Spring bug in the air
Hello peoples... so happy to say the spring bug is hitting Rhode Island. It has been a long winter! 60 degress today - I saw people outside with their rakes enjoying the day. Not me, I took my sketchbook outside instead of yard tools ;) ........

Sketches
Here is a sketch from my big sketchbook. I love this new sketchbook. It is nice and big 12 x15 I think with natural brown color paper. Fits great on my lap and is very sturdy hardcover that feels like a lap desk. This sketch here is rough right now but thought it would be good to post something because yes, it has been a while since my last post.
