I always have the best intentions when I am traveling.
I have my Peerless Water Colors, my water brush and my microns.
The problem is that we get so involved in going and doing that nothing gets drawn.
However, sometimes when I return, if I have the time, the memories are vivid
and I can sketch out impressions.
So that is what I am sharing today...impressions of our vacation in Ornans, France.
(See previous post for photos)
Flying into Geneva, we flew over Lake Geneva and I was impressed with the
plots of sunflowers, corn and hay.
Walking around Ornans, next to the Loue River, I loved the many gardens tucked next to old
stone walls that may have been there since 1300. There were old "sheds" of stone and stucco in many of the yards.
You can see, I have no idea of perspective but I do enjoy random sketches.
Happy PPF

I love your sketches. They are alive and they have your life perspective! Thanks for commenting on my blog and noting for me the spelling error! :>( You sound so like a dear friend of mine who does water color and pastel and has started Yupo. I introduced her to Zentangles a couple of years ago, too. Have a great week.
Who needs perspective when you can draw such beautiful illustrations. I like the fields full of sunflowers and the old stone shed and everything really.
wonderful sketches... i had to smile, because These days my head is full of stitching and the Patterns of the field in the first one looked like a perfect template for stiching;)
These are just lovely. Great reminders of what I'm sure was an amazing time!
Oh my! What lovely little sketches! Beautiful work. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
