Lee!!!! My fellow blogger Lee has won the drawing for the framed art!!! Congratulations Lee! Thank you, everyone who entered. I am sure I will be having more fun contests, as time goes on. Lee, I will ship your art to you on Friday, since I am not at home right now.
Matthias and Pono and I loaded up the new-to-us VW van yesterday, and drove up to Reno. We needed to see how the new engine would run. So we are in Reno right now, and we are going to drive back later this week. It is fun to get a chance to get away for a couple of days, and I am happy that there were some fall leaves to enjoy on the drive up here. Now that we live in the desert of Joshua Tree, we don't see many leaves! Isn't Pono cute, stretched out on the backseat.
I finally found a group of artists that draw from the human figure in our new area, so Thursday night I joined them and got to draw. It felt good to sharpen those charcoal pencils, and work from the human figure once again. Here is the drawing I did during the longer pose. I could tell I am rusty, from not drawing in a while. You can see how my proportions are not quite right. Practice, practice, practice!

I am so happy to have won.....I danced around the house and told the family. I have the little print you sent me before framed beside our bed. This won is going on a small wall...I will take a picture and show you how great it looks.....I never win anything so this is exciting...and I love the print and the colours....
Sheesh Karine...you blow me away with that drawing! And you need practice? That's pretty awesome in my book. Nice job!
Congrats, Lee. I am delighted you are so happy.
Thanks, Linda. I do think it needs work, though!
