Drawing while waiting in line at the grocery store.

And this is a karelian birch - this tree, deformed by nature to survive in harsh conditions of northern Russia looks very strangely in sunny California ;)

January Sketchbook leftovers


This bird was eating apples with astonishing speed - I've never seen anything like this before!

A few last pages from January book - after all, it's almost March - it's time to get to a more contemporary drawings scanned ;)

A little late but with 2 versions.

January Journal leftovers :)

This was a cold day sketch - I tried to capture leaves in the ice - not sure it worked really but I had fun trying ;)

Another sketch with new brush

here is what I found on the neighbor's property ;) These are Daffodils/Narcissus but tiny and grow in large bunches.
