challenge 245--something "October"

The fall colors this year are incredible. While I sat across the street and painted this, my elementary-school-age neighbor saw me and came out with her art supplies and painted with me. It was fun.

I should probably refine this a little, but I might not. I didn't draw anything first--just went at it right away with paint.

Sketching at the zoo--challenge 183--something dangerous

I took an afternoon to sketch the animals at the St. Louis zoo. It was a gorgeous fall day and I had the most relaxing time. This counts for challenge 183: draw something dangerous. As I drew the lions, I wondered if they were sizing me up for a possible dinner.

Last month I went out painting with the watercolor society. It was a wonderful morning of painting.
