i CAN draw

Linda and I went out wandering about a while back and I did actually sit and draw something that almost resembles a person! Yippee!! I can do it!! I asked J if it looked like and old lady, and he shook his head and said, "No. It looks like an old man." So. My apologies to the nice lady who was having lemonade with her friends. You didn't look anything like an old man.



I also grabbed a moment to draw while we were at the Biltmore on Thursday. The spires on top of the house are really lovely and fun to draw if you ignore the crick in the neck that accompanies the task. We were sitting in the courtyard drinking hot chocolate while I drew it. It's a good way to keep young boys still. The orchid was in the conservatory and I had to draw it from a picture, because the downside of using hot chocolate to keep young boys still is the burst of energy that comes after they finish the drink. Hey...you do what you can
