This is just a quick post today since I am pressed for time. Our brother-in-law is being sworn in today as one of two superior court judges for our county. It's a very big deal so we will be leaving shortly to go and watch the proceedings and to support our family.
In the meantime, I have the above two sketches for my work today. The first one is based on an idea I had the other morning. I noticed the moon rising through the trees in our backyard, silhouetted against the mountains beyond. It seemed like a scene with some good shapes. The second sketch is from a thumbnail sketch that I did late last year. It's another take on Lake Alpine. Lots of great shapes there!
OK, hope everyone is off to a good start today. I'll be back tomorrow with more sketches. There should be some actual painting on Wednesday! (Fingers crossed!)

Very important to support family. You must all be so proud. You said, OUR brother in law...not "your" brother in law?
ReplyDeleteAnyway apart from the family tree I am interested in seeing how verystructured your pattern making is. Will you or will you not, break it up with the broken edges you have been doing with the palette knife???? Cant wait to see.
Your process is so organized, Libby. Looking forward to your progress with these sketches. And congratulations to your brother-in-law!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to your family, Libby, on this great recognition. You must be beaming with pride. That is such an honor and represents so much hard work, commitment and impeccable character.
