I’ve added a few pictures below showing how the details came together, starting with the one I call finished. Bobby doesn’t call it finished as I have not signed it. That’s the hardest part as I don’t really have a desire for that and don’t know where to sign it.

It’s so hard to believe that it’s been around 9 years since I’ve drawn and I highly doubt I would have picked up another pencil had we not moved to NY.

I’m so overjoyed to have a built in studio right here at home and all I need is my little sketch pad and pencils and any room can be my studio. I’ve taken my pencils and put them in a mug so that I can easily reach for just the one I want without fumbling with the box. My easel would be nice but I’m finding that I can just sit here with my feet propped up with my sketch pad and be totally in a world all of my own. And I like to think of that “world” as my “zone” and there is no other way to describe it.

I’ve put pencil to paper once again and now the subject is watermelon. I’ll give a sneak peak of the sketch but will not be giving play by play. But I’ll share again when the project is complete.
