My first sketch of the new year! Charcoal pencil on textured paper in my sketchbook and inspired by a vintage Pinterest photo. I had trouble focusing, but I got in the practice! Yay!!!
I love doing these sketches even if I'm not that great at it! I had a little trouble focusing because I'm finishing up year end tasks, trying to end my blog posts for the last year so I can get it printed into a book, my little bunny sculpture needs hands and his butt rounded off, several sculptures are dry and need painting, a few art courses and more than a few projects waiting, the house desperately needs a thorough cleaning and decluttering, and I was gifted a one year subscription to Storyworth, where they email me a prompt once a week to write a memory/story for and they will publish it into a book at the end of the year for me. I haven't written in a long time anything like that, but it will be fun if I can find the quiet time to focus.
Throw in a few health and aging problems and I'm feeling a little overwhelmed, but I am blessed to even still be above ground. Besides it doesn't all have to be done at once! One minute, one day, one project at a time!
Now I'm off to finish the laundry and try to get my blog posts assembled for last year and get the book printed and ordered from Blog2Print. Thank goodness hubby is cooking supper!
Thanks for visiting! Take care of yourselves and have fun with your creative muse in 2023!
