33/366: Watercolor pencil sketch

Brenda — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 04:13:56 +0000

I haven’t played with watercolor pencils in a long time. I enjoy working with them, though I think this looks better on the paper than it does in the photo.

Used pinterest.com/pin/131659989076233535/ as a model.

With a group of volunteers including my husband and father-in-law, I spent a good chunk of this afternoon loading two cans of veggies and two cans of fruit into each of 456 food boxes. These boxes will be distributed to low-income elderly and will provide as many as 28 meals for the recipients.
