Red Rocks

Quite a while back my husband and I drove cross-country on our way to visit my sister in California. One of the places we drove through was New Mexico. We stopped in Sante Fe and then took a side trip to Georgia O'Keefe's home and studio in Abiquiu. While driving along we passed Abiquiu Lake and some areas of beautiful red rocks like I sketched her. I used a reference photo that I took at that time. It is a beautiful part of our country and well worth visiting.

Time Away From Home - Part 3

Here are a few more sketches for the Time Away From Home theme that we are doing over at Paper, Paint, Pencils & Pens. Come and visit...the link is the palette on the sidebar.

I visited the Saguaro National Forest in New Mexico on one of my cross-country trips.
I love the saguaro cacti.

We had stopped in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

There have been great animals in some of the locations I visited...
like this curly sheep in Dingle, Ireland.

And this pelican in Georgetown, SC.
