Sunset from our back yard. It was done with Cretacolor pastel pencils and pen and ink. Drawing used for a lesson in Kate Johnson's on-line drawing and sketching class.

No presketch was done. Scene taken from a photograph I took. I started with the sky.

Another pastel drawing done on Canson Mi-Teintes blue paper. It was done as an exercise in Kate Johnson's on-line drawing and sketchingclass.


Although this is not a drawing or painting, thought it would be interesting to see our cat's favorite position.

If I tried to sketch her this way, she'd look funny.
