Sunday Sketch Date ("What's Cookin'?)

My Cookbook Shelf

Met up with Diana, Mary-Ellen and Miss Lily for a Sketch Date today. We started at Smith and Co., but ended up back at our place before the sketchbooks even came out. We had a great afternoon, in spite of Yogi wanting to be up in everyone's lap (he's 75 pounds now) and eat our pencils. I didn't get a shot of Diana's drawing before she left, but here's mine, Lily's and M.E.'s.

November Sketch Crawl

Went out on the last sketch crawl in Penticton. There were 6 of us, and we met up at the Penticton Art Gallery. The first sketch happened there, and then the chill set in and we headed to Fibonacci's to do a little inside sketch crawling. Twas lovely, and nice to spend some time with other people doing something creative. I haven't drawn a thing since, and this was months ago! Hmmm, time to get out and practice what I preach. I'm meeting up with Diana and Mary-Ellen this aft, probably at the Cannery, for a little sketch/drink coffee session.

Below are the sketches from my fellow November Crawlers:

I have to confess I've been so absorbed in work over the past several weeks that I haven't been sketching ONCE! Time to take my own advice.
