Sketchbook Completed!
With each piece I feel there is a story, with each moment making this I have a connection to moments in life. I capture feelings, thoughts, emotions, things I saw, things I imagined and things I dream of. I also use this sketch book as a place to learn, explore and develop as an artist. I’m really grateful and appreciative that I had the experience to work in this book.
Linking up with FFO over at Nicole's Lovely blog

DeleteIt is truly an accomplishment to complete a sketchbook, and a fascinating way to see your growth as an artist. My favorites are the page with the purple, blue and red bouquet, that first pencil portrait with the smiling girl, and the red blooms over the blue/green background. Blessings!
