Day 4: The Season of Decorative Gourds

Well, I certainly wouldn't be posting today except for the promise I made.  This morning I sketched the gourds and some other fall items that we've collect on our walks through the neighborhood. Then, this evening, I painted...and painted...and painted. It had a paint-by-numbers look to it, so...


I added even more ink, overworking it even more. Tomorrow, I'll try for a simpler approach.

I am joining you and Linda on this challenge of a sketch-a-day. I have to agree with you on reaching a bump or two in the beginning....never thought it would happen so soon. Day 3 and 4 are my problems.... but maybe if we experience the 'down time' now it will get better later? Maybe?

Vicky,I think these sketches are great! They are not over done at all. The colors are beautiful and it has a joyful
Playfulness that reminds of a pleasant fall day walking and crunching leaves.
