Day Four

Little Chairs
Are these "little dolls chairs", "little doll's chairs", "little dolls' chairs", or "little doll chairs"?

A student brought these to me for drawing props. This a  contour drawing I in my sketchbook.  I didn't have enough concentration left to finish the right side, so I just threw in a border.  Works for me.  Don't forget, when you are drawing in your sketchbook, it is your sketchbook  -  you can do anything you want.

The cream sauce I made last night worked out great. I used olive oil, whole wheat flour and unsweetened almond milk.  I also used some onions, mushrooms, and, of course, garlic.  

We have SUNSHINE today.  Maybe I should get out there and soak it up before it turns to snow.  At least when it snows I won't have to feel guilty about the yard work I am not going to do.

Life's too short to feel guilt about doing something you love.

Thanks Cynthia! I love drawing chairs too.

Diana - thanks. You know - it's okay to have a messy sketchbook. It's all about what's happen in the moment, and if that's a mess, well, then it's a mess : )

Sally - you are absolutely right. Thanks for the reminder.
