Mother's Day Cards

Mother's Day is May 9. Don't forget to Thank Your Mother.
And...if you'd like to say so in one of these cards, you'll find them HERE.

Beginning 300 BLOCK East Jones Street

200 BLOCK East Jones Street

I'm finally making some progress on This is Savannah Vol. 2. Just 12 more blocks to draw! In two months!

The progression of the 200 Block of East Jones Street:

Under the Mews

Look! what I've found under the London Mews drawings...it's Jones Street, Savannah. I was drawing the 200 Block of East Jones, north side, last fall when my drawing time dissolved. It's coming to front burner now, and there's nothing like an impossible deadline to focus one's energies and time. I am very happy to be able to have a little of that these days, time. {knock on wood}

London Mews

The drawing is multi-directional. I can't decide horizontal or vertical...

London Mews is part of the City Houses series - and a birthday gift for one Londoner from Baltimore.

Easter Treasures

The Easter Cat. came, all the way from Belgium to Savannah last night!
It's a thin-shell hollow chocolate egg, filled with little bunnies and ducks and eggs all with fillings of their own. I love treasures that reveal miniatures, fit perfectly inside. Sure to be drawing inspiration.
And this beautiful antique plate that got roughed up a bit with character.

Truly grateful that He Lives and we have enjoyed a Spiritual Feast this weekend.

Back to London

I'm really happy to finally be able to carve out a little time to pick up loose ends of last fall. Working on a London Mews-scape, an overdue birthday gift. I've tried to transpose sketchbook sketches made on-site several years ago to the orthagonal streetscape format, then added more buildings from photographs. I hope the hodge-podge can become a tidy, not a messy, Mews.
