This is the sketch of the day. Lately have been trying to figure out some kind of Mother and child kind of painting. I guess it is that time of year. So this is one of the sketches that I did. I love her baby. It's all kind of sweetness.
Come join us at for the Sunday Sketches.
Also yesterday we went to the West Reading On the Avenue Open house shopping with the Sisters. What a great day we had.
Jamie and Me (See I do exist)
Heidi and Jamie (I don't know why we did not ask to have someone take the picture so we all could be in the picture.
We had lunch at West Reading Tavern, a dirty martini, shopping at Curious?? and Hello Bluebird , 2 Dirty martini's at The Wineroom were we meet a really cool bartender/artist Albert and some really funny ladies, and then dinner at Good Eatz(Oh so good)
Heidi got one of these lovely sunflowers for me for Christmas from Curious??. Shhhh Its a surprise.
