taking a sketchy break . . .

Why finish washing dishes when I can sketch?

My father’s mother, Grandma Stanley, loved color. She owned a set of original Fiesta dishes in various pastels. I  take after her but I prefer my Fiesta dishes in deep, bold colors.

She painted with chalky pastels, mostly still life. I’d rather just sketch the everyday things around me with ink and watercolor. But in so many ways we are alike.
