orange pansies


Can’t Resist…that’s the theme this month at The Sketchbook Challenge.

This topic is going to be fun…I have TONS of things I can’t resist. Chocolate, desserts, margaritas, breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks in general, waking sleeping cats, giving unsolicited advice to my daughter, watching Casablanca or Rear Window even though I’ve seen them each a hundred times, well, see what I mean. Just loads of things. This is going to be an excellent theme to work with.

The sketch above shows two things I can’t resist: glazing a painting until the color is POPPING off the page and adding ink outlines. I think that part must be from my early “art” influences. That would be color books or Disney cartoons. Just can’t resist adding an inked outline!
