Pencil sketches...

...are fun!

This little Arabian pranced out my mind and on to the paper as I sat in my favorite comfy chair watching a great movie, with a belly full of yummy Christmas dinner leftovers. The happy look on this horse's face reflects my mood at the time. :-)

Did I mention what Santa brought me this year? (drum roll):

A NEW EASEL !!!

Since my painting studio is not insulated yet, and well, it's really cold out--I have to wait until Spring to use it...

Many thanks to Santa, also known as my wonderful husband, Steve, for my easel. It is beautiful! And it can hold a HUGE canvas or board. *happy dance*

There will be much painting when the daffodils start poking their little heads through the dirt...
