Summer Landscapes

I always look forward to the summer months.  Colorful flowers, singing birds and luscious green trees are seen everywhere even if you live in the city, as I do.  It is a perfect time to be outdoors finding interesting scenes to sketch.

However, I have not been sketching as much as I would have liked to.  Besides being busy with life's usual ups and downs, I have just been enjoying the silence of long sunny summer days reading, cooking and going for walks.

I hope I will be back to my drawing and painting mood as the weather becomes cooler. For the moment, I have a few pencil sketches to share with you.
Wish you all a wonderful summer!







"Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time."
-John Lubbock
