Sunday Sketches - Seasonal Touch

This journal page is just a seasonal touch for Sunday Sketches. (7"h  x 5w") in watercolour pencils.

It's been bitterly cold in the Toronto area the past few days with snow on and off. The malls are jam-packed.  Starting at midday even during the week, the parking lots are already full!

    Lovely, Christine. I love how you're always drawing and painting. I can't seem to get myself to sit down often enough to paint something. Sigh. It might have to be a New Years resolution.

    Beautiful picture, love the shape of the vase! Looks like it will be cold, grey and wet here today, but no snow at the moment! Valerie

    I love the simplicity of your sketch. You always do such lovely work. Our malls are crowded too. If I go anywhere near a store or mall, I am the first one in the door so I can leave before the crowds get there.

      Farida this one was inspired by a photo I saw in a magazine.

    Holiday Traffic is crazy here too and I live in a small town!
    I really was looking forward to snow but none yet. Hope the snow is not causing you any problems. Sweet drawing!

    Your arrangement looks wonderful! We have similar decoration in the small wooden cottages in the Bacvarian Alps. It always makes me feel cosy and comfortable.
