From my sketchbook

I have been a bit sore and sorry for myself after my fall, but yesterday we had to go to Adelaide, John to a meeting so I wandered around Norwood Parade, had a coffee and read the paper until he was finished and then we headed over to the hair dressers. While John was having his hair and beard cut and after I had been 'done' I sat out on a very comfortable couch and sketched what was in front of me, the big owl was on a cushion and I added the smaller one and there were also two candlesticks so a small addition to my sketchbook. I am taking things a little slowly, it is my left shoulder that is giving me grief but I am still managing to get done what has to be. I am making pumpkin soup at the moment to take away with me next week, I go on Monday and home on Thursday, leaving John to hold the fort, and feed the animals. He has some meetings and didnt think he should come with me.

You can never do too much sketching Penny, and yours are delightful.

Love the owl ... and sketching is so good - relaxing and absorbing. I don't find time to do enough of it.

Hope you're feeling less sore soon. That's a cute owl. I think I'd like that cushion!

I, too, love your little sketch of the owl cushion ... looks so very comfortable with his little buddy.
