Base Ball Tournaments and Sketching Time on a Summer Day

Ball point pen on 140# Exact Index Paper

Colton entered into day two of the local baseball tournaments. Held on the community fields in Slippery rock. Though HOT, I sketched and watched his team lose one, win one, lose one. These subjects too cheered them on.

Ink sketches splashed with watercolor

Moleskine watercolor sketchbook, some final pages in this sketchbook. I'm afraid and 'saving' the last for something. Though at the time of this post I have moved on to another sketchbook,my first that I have made and leave behind the blank white last pages. Instead of waiting for the right something and holding myself up I just moved on... 

Nobody in waiting room today...but me and the furniture

Registration area. Inked one day, watercolor added next day

A few sketches while listening to a band in our 'town square' on a summers evening. The kids found some other kids to through a ball around with and Tom and I sat back and enjoyed the music and sites of people.

On the way back to the car my daughter ssid she wanted to learn to olay the drums...after i am done with guitar of course. (she just started guitar this summer,piano for 3 years...words from babes i tell ya)

Return to school....

The kids listen to the Bible lesson. Got a chance to try to draw lots of backs of people. I have Mrs. R mush heavier than she is but I feel the overall first attempt at the class isn't to bad.

I returned to school with. First grade that is! Yep, It is not quite what I had in mind when I think of returning to school but it will do. I have been accompanying Zach to help keep an eye on him with his seizures. So with sketchbook in hand here are a few sketches I did while I was in class. Maybe it looks like I was taking notes....

Here is an attempt at drawing some more kids and some items in the music room. What I ended up doing was drawing this item and that and just placing them through out the page. I even kept notes on some of the things I learned or exercises I found interesting. This page also has my record of times Zach had seizures. I treat this journal as sacred and if I put my notes and list in it I know i will be able to find the information too down the road if need be.
