Rocks

This summer, I went to our family cabin, where I drew the big rock in the river. I draw this every year and I never capture its essence. This year, it looks like a resting mammoth.


I also drew on some rocks..


I drew a little Native American design and then decided to draw some things that I would like to have with me on the beach...



We took a day trip to the Oregon Garden...






and I drew some more rocks...this time Columnar Basalt...

Hi Vicky, these are delightful. How fun to paint on rocks. I want to do that. It looks like you had a wonderful vacation. I really love the one with the yarn too (in the post before this).

Thanks, Andrea. Just get yourself a black and silver Sharpie and some rocks. Have fun!

Love all your drawings. The fish on the stones are wonderful. I love fish - especially salmon.

The reservoir pic was taken recently - I think the blue sky made the water look bluer too!

Love the rocks. What a good way to use the materials around you. I did purchase a blank paper notebook and have done one sketch. You inspire me.

Thank you, Unknown. I'm so glad to hear you have sketched. There are so many good reasons for sketching. I hope you enjoy it.
