My Daily From Vermont

Phew!

Done traveling...

Back to normal ....whatever normal is!

Lots of Daily pages to catch you up on.

These were from the time I spent in Vermont.

But it starts with some lace I saw in Toronto.....

That is how this page began.

A pencil sketch..... and then outlined in color

and the pencil lines erased.

 

I cannot stress how awesome Jane Davies is.

She was an incredible teacher.

I am a big Fan! 

.

The house Lynn and I stayed in had 5 cats.

We never did learn "Morris's" name...

(is that grammatically correct?)

But he always leaned towards us so we could scratch his neck.

Therefore, this cat is leaning. 

The other charming thing about Elizabeth's house

is the chickens displayed all over her walls and shelves.

 

The learning in this class was sometimes overwhelming.

Jane has a lot of 'Art Wisdom' and advice.

I totally welcomed it! Loved it even!

It was intense!

But there were times I had to withdraw my head from it.

Sometimes I had to sit at my table and just doodle mindlessly.

I also sketched these Golden Paints sitting in front of me.

I fell in love with the beautiful transparent colors of the fluid acrylics.

I should have sketched my brayer too...

because the 2" brayer is my new best friend!

Yes.

Happy Anniversary to my husband of 33 years!

Can you believe it?

33 years! Wow!

What a great guy!

He didn't mind me being gone for our anniversary.

What an encouraging art retreat!
