Right after lunch. Drawn in a music notebook.

" Deep sleep is not absence of awareness, it is rather awareness of absence ( i. e. absence of mind and body ) "

Drawn in a music notebook I bought before the quarantine. I miss seeing people walking down my street.

Hand and colour study. This was back when I just bought my whole 72 set Prisma Colour and I wanted to practice with it.

Some favourite quotes.

I had a spare 45 min after an errand and wanted to see the De Young. I wasn't planning on it, so I didn't have a jacket or hat to protect from the cold wind and had to draw fast.

Old drawing that I did few years ago

Magnolias are spring harbingers in our garden, as well as our annual ornamental cherry display. Star magnolias are over, tulip magnolias are in full swing, and the occasional Southern magnolia is starting. Perhaps I should have done this with a gouache paint, but I used colored pencils. Oh well. Outlined after with various sizes of Pigma Micron pens. Our garden: www.edgewoodgarden.com

My hammock waiting for the new tree leaves to fill in the shade. Yes, there is an exercise ball my son brought out to the garden.
