Day 1169 sometimes you just have to

Just have to journal and draw your lunch. I was trying to draw the birds at the feeder but they zoomed in and out so fast they were gone before I could put pen to page. I like them to sit on the rails or the back deck and hold still for a few second at least.

If you look you can see the outlines of three not so great bird drawings. This is one of the tea dyed pages I did a week or so ago. That African nectar tea is a great color but it did rough up the surface a little.

Painted with Ted Nuttall transparent colors and Charles Reid’s favorite leaf green Holbein Terre Vert.

Drawn with thenLamy Safari small letters done with Lamy Ef. Noodles Eelskin Black.

The socks I have been darning and a few strays. My feet won’t be cold in this icy snowy weather we are getting in the south east.

Hugs Margaret staying warm in her flannels. Xxoxoxox

Day 1168 Busy Day

My sons dog Wesley for your consideration tonite. Drawn with a hmm Lamy Ef- a Vista.

My son calls him the cow dog because he’s black and white like a Holstein cow made famous in Atlanta by Chic fil A’s advertising campaign in which cows advise you to eat Moh Chicken.

He also has a Harry Potter lightning bolt on his rump. So he may be a warlock too.

Colors used. Quin sienna Indigo and pyrrole red.

Margaret who needs a nap and doesn’t feel good but is refusing to get sick. Only two more socks to darn. Xoxoxooops no three more socks. #pitbull #pittie #blackandwhite #stillmanandbirn #ink #teadyed #instadogs #dogs #pittie #pitbull #terrier #art #atlanta #chien #decatur #ink #sbsadrawingaday #stillmanandbirn #lamysafari #uniball
