Momentary finds




Per Laura's request, I am now going to sketch and post daily (yikes!) I'm not always happy with my proportionate eye, but accuracy of proportion will likely improve with practice. I hope what I sketch and post is of interest -- knowing I've made the intention public will keep me practicing, so thanks in advance for your patience.

Even a utility pole wants to see things more clearly.

  3. I love your sketches, they have such life. And speaking of life, how is it possible little green leaves could be growing from the utility pole??

  4. For years I worked as a cable tv tech either climbing poles or digging holes.

    Those are known in the 'biz as "pole specs".

    Ah, Laura is an inspiring example! To do anything worthwhile every day...

    "Even": today I am thinking it could be "at least."

  8. I love your sketches. It's great you will be posting more of those. Have you seen Chris Ware's sketchbook? I think you would like that. It's a beautiful book to have. There's a new Robert Crumb sketchbook out as well, which is amazing. I like the idea of sketching as a form of diary writing...

    Yes! It will improve, but I personally really like your sketches.
    I have tagged you by the way! I was tagged by Sweat Pea and I am passing on the favour. See my blog for the questions or ignore as you wish.
    Have a great holiday Lori.
