Is hard to post a picture each day, and i get behind!
Here are Days 7,8 and 9.
I looked up the song, 'I heard the Bells on Christmas Day' and was surprised to find out Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote it as a poem as his son was injured in the Civil war and he was taking care of him. I was touched by the story and all the words. Especially the last two stanzas.
The challenge was draw a bell. Day 8 was a red bird, and Day 9 was a fireplace. The fireplace was drawn with an elegant writer and i kept it all black except for the wreath. I just wanted to do something different.
I love to draw and sketch, and have kept sketchbooks for years! This blog is strictly for my sketches past and present...There is nothing quite like finishing a sketchbook and look back through it and remember all the fun things that I got to sketch! Or filling a sketchbook from a trip. Or just sharing your sketchbooks. It is like your own visual diary. If you are interested in getting updates, to to the right side bar and add your email address. Please contact me if you have any questions.
