So very often the importance of "just sketching"... as the underpinning of all good painting... gets lost.<br /><br />A nice way to remind folks of that important fact! Looking forward to more of your explorations in thios vein!<br /><br />By the way... We're currently down in the Barbados holidaying. What a paradise for painters! I've menaged a couple of watercolours... in the shade. Boy... is it HOT!!! I'm a Winter kinda guy as you know! Lovin' the sights though... and the meals of resh fish my Hearty!<br /><br />Warmest regards,<br />BruceBruce Shermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13111784187521969252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18288359.post-283084099489272522011-04-06T14:12:12.772-07:002011-04-06T14:12:12.772-07:00She has so many thoughts...such quiet reflection. ...She has so many thoughts...such quiet reflection.
