finally! something new...

For all of you who thought that I had taken the shuttle to Mars, I'm back! I was inspired recently to try my hand at colored pencils and with an exhibit coming up about my town, I found great subject matter to draw. I've not foresaken watercolor, but pencils have been great fun!

Let me know what you think.

update

Thanks to all my loyal friends for continuing to embarrass me into picking up a paintbrush again. I can only say that my other career has taken an incredible turn and needed all my attention. As a marketing/pr person, getting worldwide attention for a project is one of the highs of the business but it sure takes a lot of work.
That said, I actually painted this past weekend but didn't finish anything. It was pure pleasure though just to put brush to paper.
Meanwhile, I thought you might like to visit the site of my great friend, Jeanne Bauer:

Jeanne is an incredible artist and is one of those people who makes a success of everything she does. I hate that we live on opposite coasts now but she's always in my heart.
Enjoy the summer and keep encouraging me.
