Rosemary.

I had a morning to do this drawing.  I was happy with some elements in it but certainly not all.  If I have not drawn for a while; I feel as though I need to revisit the pointers that I was given to show depth and shading.  I did not have time to do that yesterday.

Rosemary, in rememberance for ANZAC Day.  This drawing was given to our 13 year old niece for her birthday.  She is very good at drawing.

On the Twenty Second Day of December.....

Readings: Luke 1:1-23, Luke 1:26-38, Luke 1:39-80

We are in holiday mode. All woke at 9:30am (except poor husband E who is at work). The cat is enjoying all the company and now breakfast at 11:30am. Beds are made, chores are waiting. the children have eaten! I have posted a photo of myself, inspired by A Woman of Notes. I have a few family members from overseas who look at this blog, so thought I would say "Hello" in person.

Before the 24th I need to draw four more items for cards. In husband E's family, when children start high school, we do not buy gifts for Christmas. Instead we make a special card with encouraging messages and hand it to them on Christmas Day. E's sisters write limmericks or poems or other ideas that inspire. Every year I draw something small......I have done one already.....
