Window view
Posted: February 10, 2020 Filed under: Uncategorized 15 CommentsI’m not complaining about the first week of February. So far we’ve had one big winter storm and in addition to that, another overnight snowfall even before we had a chance to properly dig out from the first. But that’s ok with me. I’ll take snow over rain in winter any day. I was hoping to get outside to sketch from my car today but the snow was coming down too quickly, so I set up a chair in front of a window at home and settled for a window view.

As always, stunning work! Gives me a feeling that I’ve dropped in for a visit and am looking out your window with you! Sketches are always so much more up close and personal than photos.

You have to make lemonade out of all this! Of course after you finish shovelling : )

Did you use a pencil to block in?

HI Stan, For this one, since the shapes were fairly simple, I didn’t use a pencil. I did do some light lines with a brush to block in the shapes.

Good Evening dear Shari,
I always find something special in all your sketches, may b even it could be just a small dot.
I found those cars really interesting and beautiful looking.
Thanks for sharing,
Regards and blessings,

Its crazy how quickly the snow came here this February. It went from shallow snow to 6ft snowbanks in like 4 days, and mild the next few days then a really sharp cold snap on Saturday. -15C daytime high or something.
