I came across some of my old sketches the other day, including scraps of sketches on old yellow-lined paper. Sometimes those are the best!

It was part of playing "store". I had them "pay" to take a "class" after I'd paid for my coffee! They drew cookies and chex mix. I hope to get them used to sketching small everyday things so they might fill pages like yours someday.Timareehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15769047120660859743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711781124266002702.post-73052296260851288592010-12-21T02:40:50.225-05:002010-12-21T02:40:50.225-05:00More play?

All thought is not lost. Just too much to do right now. I am glad to see I am nto the only one that does this.Lisa at Greenbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743973292900758183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711781124266002702.post-19942893602466646902010-12-20T11:07:04.675-05:002010-12-20T11:07:04.675-05:00What fun to give yourself permission just to do ar...What fun to give yourself permission just to do art.Jacquelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10474477135510492401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711781124266002702.post-62789738487379194222010-12-20T10:52:14.907-05:002010-12-20T10:52:14.907-05:00I think this is why I like the Sketchbook Project-...I think this is why I like the Sketchbook Project--the paper is so lousy and I just have at it. Same thing with Yupo--I love that it's not even real watercolor "paper," so I feel so loose when I use that stuff. Good for you, Laure--keep it fun. These are delightful, and you'll probably come up with additional ideas from all this play, too!A Brush with Colorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07638723986208929476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711781124266002702.post-63598587807475567342010-12-20T10:51:24.601-05:002010-12-20T10:51:24.601-05:00Fun!
