What a beautiful day at the Lake with my family! My favorite sketch of the day is of my daughter Grace on the float bobbing along behind the boat, having a ball! Love this sketch...
Who knew that Claytor Lake had a lighthouse! Everybody else was performing antics in the water while I sketched during intervals between watching them... "Watch this, Mama!"...add another brush stroke..."Mama, look at this"... another brush stroke... "Deborah, watch this!" Okay I will have to call it done!
Sketches at right above from the football game last night. Our team won 45 to naught!! Yeah Team!
And back to the lake today... a real RIGATA! How beautiful all those white sailboats were against the backdrop of billowy soft, perfectly formed, summer clouds.
This was a warm-up sketch I did in the camper from a photo in Southern Living Magazine before we left to ride the boat.
A perfect day, documented with sketches and topped off with a camp fire roasting marshmallows before heading home. And now I'm off to bed. Night all...
