On the group blog I am doing called "Paper, Paint, Pencils, & Pens" our theme for the end of March was "Gardens and Parks." I already posted a few of the sketches I did and here are a few more.
This was done from a photo I took in the sculpture garden at Johnstown Castle in Ireland.
My sister, Fran, had a wonderful garden in Ramona, CA and I did this sketch from a photo I took of one of her bird of paradise plants.
Last spring I visited the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens. This was done from one of the photos I took of a magnolia tree in bloom.
Stay posted for a few more "Gardens & Parks" sketches.
Your endless ideas and locations for subject matter is wonderful Joan and your sketches takes us on your journey too
