I'm continuing to make sketches to paint. I have discovered I am one of those people that needs to have everything sketched out and waiting before I can go forward. I sometimes like to use a white pencil on top of black gesso for my drawings. I'm disappointed that some personal things arose that interfered with my doing the 30 Paintings In 30 Days Challenge. I am so far behind now, I am unable to catch up. When I have 30 sketches completed I'm going to challenge myself to complete them in 30 days. Good luck to the artists that are succeeding in completing their paintings. I'm enjoying looking at all the wonderful work being done. Thanks for stopping by.
