Still July

 I had to post my sunflowers...Amazing huh...

Madison wanted a stand to sell her hand made play dough marbles.  We had lemonade and 2 cookies to the "kit"...her name for it...for $1.   If people just wanted lemonade she said $2.  4 hours of prep time and 1 hour of selling for $13.  Not too bad.


I am taking an amazing Mary Ann Moss class on line.  dispatchfromla.typepad.com   So much good info on sketching ...Makes me want to just sketch and play with watercolors and lettering.   But so far I did a blind contour drawing and some kelp sketches at the beach...but we are going out today to do some more.  Madison has planned a picnic sketch at Ballard School.

I am also taking the equally amazing, Lynn Whipple's    http://lynnwhipple.wordpress.com   collage class...so fun...Here is what I am doing there...not done...
