1. Drawing Baby Joshua

A busy Saturday taking a group of seven giggling, sugar infused 10 year olds to the bowling alley for a belated birthday celebration (September is bad time for birthdays in our family - soccer season followed by the holidays...next thing you know, you're having a birthday party in January).


So, I didn't think I'd be getting much in the way of art done this weekend.  Certainly, no painting endeavors.  But, as it turned out, it was my turn to be in the nursery at church.  We have one baby there, and he was kind enough to let me sketch him.

He was actually a good model as far as babies go - he was fascinated by the scratching of my quickly moving pencil so he would hold his position for a decent amount of time.  But, it's always challenging to draw a moving subject.  However, sleepy time came quickly and then drawing is a whole lot easier.  You have to grab drawing opportunities wherever you can find them sometimes.

Now, I'm off to read some chapters for a literature study I'm leading with my homeschool group.

It was Tom’s idea. He was on a bit of a pun roll last year.

As usual, there are holiday delights aplenty to be enjoyed over at Marion and Laura‘s blogs

3. Gen Y [Still] Lets The Good Times Bowl

In yesterday's Essentials I referred to the rise in young bowlers as a comeback for a retro pastime. Upon closer examination and a flashback to a post from Anastasia on this same trend back in the early days of Ypulse circa 2005, I'd like to revisit... Read the rest of this post
