The Sword in the Stone is a 1963 animated fantasy comedy film, produced by Walt Disney originally released to theaters on December 25, 1963. The eighteenth animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics, it was the last Disney animated feature released while Walt Disney was alive.
It is part of the 'English Cycle' of Disney animated films, which include Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, 101 Dalmatians, The Jungle Book, Winnie the Pooh, Robin Hood, The Great Mouse Detective, Pocahontas and Tarzan.
The film is based on the novel The Sword in the Stone, at first published in 1938 as a single novel. It was then later republished in 1958 as the first book of T. H. White’s tetralogy The Once and Future King. From Merlin’s statement that The Times won't come out for another 1200 years ("They can't wait for the London Times. First edition won't be out for at least, uh... 1,200 years."), it may be extrapolated that the film is set circa A.D. 558.

A leaf picked up in a parking lot, observed in silence for a time, then sketched to the best of my ability in a Moleskine notebook - trying to really look at the small, usually unnoticed things around us & see them -

This is just terrible. I rarely get time to draw or do any "art" anymore. I am not complaining, my life has been very busy and fun mostly. Some challenges too. But I've been wanting to draw some Zentangles and I finally had time today and I think it is terrible. I did it without "strings" thinking it would be easier to be "free" with the patterns, and it is just ugly. All the ones I see online or in books are so beautiful and just flow together nicely.
Illustration Friday's theme this week is "Jazz" , this is not a new drawing but it does fit the theme and this week I'm thankful that I have it!
It's strange that last night and the night before I didn't sleep well, I would have thought I wouldn't sleep well the night before the workshop but not after I knew it had gone well. So anyway, today I feel all draggie. Hopefully I'll perk up soon.
So it's just a regular work day today, I had gotten an e-mail yesterday from the Drop Leaf Gallery and they are wanting to get all the paintings, price sheets, photos etc, right away so they can get a good start on organizing the show. (The reception will be the day after I get back from Chicago, the 29th) Also, since last week the other Art Mom got sick we will be doing art in Tanner's class today. This is a busy time for me but it's good and feels productive.
I am wanting to look at all the Illustration Friday entries as well as catch up with my on-line friends but I guess that will wait until Sunday when I'm alone and need to goof off some.

The life drawing on the left was created using straight pencil lines to give the figure a very sculptural form. The life drawing on the right was created using chalk and charcoal and I was trying to capture the shadows and tones of the figure.
This one is for my angora rabbit pet which we thought was a boy when we first got her. She's grown into a fluff ball that eats everything, even shoes.
