The Sketch Project was quite an accomplishment and your kind words of encouragement helped so much. Thank you for cheering me on. The sketches will be on display in Cape Town, South Africa during the month of October. They will return to Alaska, then finally land in Kihei, Hawaii where the buyer lives. Amazing how such a piece of art can get around.
Seeing that I was able to sketch every day with such great response, I’ve decided to sell one sketch a week. I haven’t done this before and I will admit I’m a bit nervous. I’m not nervous about sketching, but the commitment of getting the image up for sale on a regular basis. It isn’t really that big of a deal if I look at it one sketch at a time, so with that confession, I’ll show you this week’s sketch. This is an original and I’m not planning on making prints because that is a commitment I don’t even want to look at right now. Here is the link to my Etsy store if you would like to purchase it. I’m going to put it on Facebook tomorrow, but I wanted to give my blog friends first opportunity. I’m going to keep the cost low on these because I want you to have a chance to buy them and it will motivate me to sketch and sketch.
The leaves are turning and some have blown off the trees. Last week I took this photo.
Lovely! The colors here just kind of turn brown – as they get tired and dry heading into fall. I miss the look of trees caught in their peak moment by a hard frost. Blessings. – Michelle
Wonderful Suzie !!!
I prefer your mountains to Mother Nature’s. This is well made art.
Michelle, brown leaves are rather sad. I’m thinking you might be having a more cultured fall break? A little bird told me.
Thank you, Martha!
Thank you, Lee. I can’t seem to capture the saturation of color in those mountains, but being out there and breathing the cool air makes the process delightful.
