I can't decide if I am going to add any color to the front & back cover.

5 x 7, pen and ink, plain white paper

I just realized that I need to get back to work on the Sketchbook Project for the Brooklyn Art Library, as the deadline is fast approaching, so I made this little sketch,  It's my husband--or--it's supposed to be.

A Few More Pages

First Light on Mary's Sketchbook Project book

Well, I've been busy with traveling and working on my novel for NaNoWriMo, and I haven't been at all happy with this sketchbook--poor quality paper!!  I like to do water media and paper is too thin and transparent for that.  But here are my efforts, such they are.  Andrea's are so much better!!!

The inner cover is done with pigment pens

The first 2-page spread of a turtle is done in watercolors.

 Pink Evening Primrose, Texas; water-color pencils and pen and ink.

 Last Roses of Autumn;  water color pencils.

 Leaning Tower:  Pigment pens and water-color pencils.

  

Engakulated; Pigment pens and water-color pencils. 

Disengakulated; Pigment pens and water-color pencils.

Hide the Horror

I picked the monochromatic theme.

I also started this book in the middle and since I finished this piece that choice has kind of stumped me. Hopefully I can move on to my second piece soon.

Greetings Sketchbook Project Members
