VSD May 2009

Well I missed the dead line. However, I did my Sketch Date for May. I just did not get back in time to post. I went to New York to see the Picasso show.. Needless to say I have been working on this months Photo provided by: a Parent of two beautiful daughters at a Hoedown.

I hope you all enjoy my entry! It was a joy to do. I am most proud of its outcome.

Hi! Everyone has done such Wonderful! April Sketches.

Well, here is my entry for April, done with Prismacolor Pencils.

I have used both the Regular and Thin Pencils.

I want to thank everyone who works so hard to provide us this lovely opportunity.

Especially, this month to Jeanette Jobson's exquisite reference photo.

It was a joy to do. I have scruffy new baby bird for Spring.
I want to thank all who work to give us such wonderful photos.

A wonderful Photo to work with. I hope Mr. Linky is working.

This is the Virtual Sketch Date for February. The original photo is by Debbie Later. I have been watching all the ones uploaded and they are wonderful!

My Sketch is done mainly in Prismacolor Colored Pencils. I also used some Derwent Colored Pencils. Both of these brands are very creamy. I find if I keep sharp blades in my battery operated and hand held sharpeners. I have little or no breakage. Thank-you for asking about the media. All I did to the photo was crop. It came out very well for iPhone.
