Brittlebank Baseball Park in Charleston SC. Sketched while sitting in the vehicle waiting on my husband. Pitt Artist Pen and various watercolors, Koi waterbrush. About an hour.
The page is split into two sketches - one is a warm up using the lilies as a subject.
Quick sketch from the VanDerPoel book, if you can still find an ediiton. The challenge was no corrections, and all construction marks are in the final.

We went to starbucks, and then rented some movies for tonight. At the end, we passed by Chinese grocery store on our way home.
I sketched this weeks ago.
Her name would be Astrid and she's a swedish-like girl with deep pink hair, that i'm thinking of rerooting myself. I would be using my new CS as a base, and her scalp for the reroot.
These were just a few outfit sketches too that i'd like to try, but from my experience already, sewing doll clothes is not easy. try try try again.
For my JJL buddies:
When I saw my buddy Karen Blados's zentangle , I was instantly curious *and* inspired! After a quick internet search, this is what I discovered:
The Zentangle® art form and method was created by Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas. Zentangle® is a registered trademark of Zentangle, Inc. Learn more at zentangle.com.
From the website:
"What is Zentangle?
Zentangle is an easy to learn method of creating beautiful images from repetitive patterns. It is a fascinating new art form that is fun and relaxing. It increases focus and creativity. Zentangle provides artistic satisfaction and an increased sense of personal well being. Zentangle is enjoyed by a wide range of skills and ages and is used in many fields of interest.
We believe that life is an art form and that Zentangle is an elegant metaphor for deliberate artistry in life. Explore our web site and learn how you can use this wonderful and uplifting discovery."
There are lovely examples on their blog as well zentangle.blogspot.com/
I have to admit that I haven't taken a course or gone through the workbook and am just winging it after looking through the website. I love the idea of meditative doodling and it's been a very nice way to start the day. I'm a wee bit tempted to become a Certified Zentangle teacher or attend a Zentangle Master Class. [sigh]
See a few more that I've done at my Zentangle set .
After making it up as I went along, I found a Squidoo lens that explains how to make your own zentangle. Why don't you give it a try? ;-)

Thanks, Rosa, for inviting me to share this learning and winging it experience!~
/// I'm not sure think this counts as a Zentangle® anymore.
And, my quilts are more squared-up than this is. You'll have to take my used-to-be-an-engineer-but-still-a-little-obsessive word for it [ahem].
On a damp day in Sydney, nineteen sketchers met in the inner city suburb of Newtown for an Urban Sketchers Sydney event. We immediately headed a block away from busy King Street and scattered in the backstreets, sketching together and in small groups from 10 to 12.30. Then a get together to discuss our sketches and to lunch. I sketched my lunch and also did some on the way there and back.

in October 2004, on our way to Australia, we stopped off for a couple of days in Fiji; this pair of images shows a view from the terrace of our room at a b&b in Nadi, the second largest city in Fiji; one view is a photo, the other is a pen & ink sketch from my sketchbook; they show virtually the same view, although the photo seems to have been taken while I was standing up, the sketch done while sitting down, so that the perspective is somewhat different
Skizze für ein Auftragswerk ;) Endlich habe ich das Gesicht mal richtig ähnlich hinbekommen.

Preliminary sketch for a commissioned painting ;) Finally I got the face right.
Plus it's another page of my series of nuggets of wisdom ;) Unconditional love for a pet is easy!
From the book 12 Sketches of Old Boston Buildings, by George R. Tolman, published 1882:
"No. 117 Richmond Street. Date 1720-70. The lower portion of this building is of brick, laid 'Promiscuous bond'; the upper part of wood, slightly projecting, is a later addition, but was built of material removed from an ancient building. The present building was used at one period (about forty years ago) as a Dance Hall, frequented by Sailors and lawless people, who engaged in many brawls and affrays.
A very brutal murder in 1840, at this house, created considerable public excitement at the time. The next lot to the left, on the corner of Richmond and North Streets, was the site of the 'Old Colonial Custom House,' a brick structure with a coat of arms built into the wall dated 1696. On the removal of the building the coat of arms was preserved, and can now be seen in the front wall of the present structure which forms the corner.
Tide-water formerly extended to this point."
