I used to draw and sketch every single day
when I was really young...for hours.
I haven't done much in years.
Sometimes I think about it.
Lately I've thought about it more.
Then, this morning, still in my jammies, I picked up my journal
and a pencil and just started.
I had seen a face in a fashion magazine a while back.
It was angular and very striking.
She had dark eyes and dark, really tousled, short hair.
I loved the photograph.
I don't like that I spontaneously
did a face on this particular painted background, but...so be it.
It feels fun. Again.
Maybe I will add more pencil strokes later today
...when I get out of my pj's.
Have a lovely, lazy Saturday!

How exciting to see you sketching. This face is amazing...just like you. Why change from pj's on a nice lazy Sat? We have sunshine and lots of snow...so beautiful today.
It's like the face is emerging from the page. I'd love to see this when sh'e done. In the mean time enjoy your lazy Saturday!
