Marta's Sketch Book


our realm of blogging
on line classes
we meet people
whom we have never met
in person
yet become part of our hearts 

one day i received this gorgeous journal in the mail
from my dear friend Marta
she is a magical artist
and woman of heart and care

i feel honored to call her my friend


i decided to make this a pen sketch book
no pencil
no paint
no erasing 
for the pens i use are permanant

the above was done with a dip pen


eating at Loula's cafe
trying to note details of a woman across from me
without disturbing her meal and privacy
NOT easy!
this actually looks a bit like her


Diamonds (above)
was done as the sun set... into Stillwater Lake:

I love doing art outside
During summer, mosquitoes get in the way
winter; freezing temps

Swirly (above)
is an imaginary being


being of the branches
and the wee fairy kin
are imaginary friends
