| Lake Chalet (and Plumbing) on Lake Merritt, Oakland. Ink & watercolor, 5×7.5″ | |
What attracted me to draw this scene wasn't the lovely
Lake Chalet building; it was
the multiple plumbing features on the grass that slopes down to the
restaurant from the sidewalk where I sat to draw. And of course the
antique street lights that circle the lake.

| Milk Carton at Picante, ink & watercolor, 5×5″ |
I struggled trying to draw these two milk cartons so issued a challenge
to the other sketchers at my table to draw them too. We all had a
different view of the cartons set in the middle of the table so it was
fun to see the variety of approaches and points of view.

| Drawing Rocks Practice on Sculpture at Oakland Museum, ink & watercolor, 5x7x5″ |
After a workshop on drawing rocks (part of John Muir Laws' Bay Area
Nature Journal Club) Susan and I walked down to the Oakland Museum's
sculpture garden, looking for rocks to practice on. The only rock-like
object we could find was this clay sculpture.
Fun!
