Autumn is here. Work has kept me firmly indoors away from the hills. I’m the ‘bear’
again made worse by those who enjoy people in office parties. I don’t do either very well and I’m brooding for sheep and peat. I also have some catching up to do on friends posts.
I promise to post a real painting soon.

Sometime you just have to grin and bare it…the parties I mean.
I love sketch of the people. You make it look so easy.
Looking for to your next painting, Keith.
Have a good evening.

Thanks Debbie, these three sketches were taken from photographs. You’ll always find me in the kitchen at parties.
Hope you break free soon…my friend Laurie just lost her 14 year old westie Claire http://holessence.wordpress.com/2011/10/18/holding-vigil/
made me think of you and Doris…
Zip will not stay still for a picture…I bet the party people of the sketches were not holding very still either ?
We are having another stunning day of cold, crisp sunshine…had to just write about it today after a hearty walk
Take a picture of Zip and send it to me please.
Cold here to, although it’s bright.
Sorry to hear about Claire
Those we loose don’t fade away, they walk beside us everyday.
You draw people, with fascinating facial expressions, very well! I’m not big on parties either – I hope you get a good dose of sheep and peat to cheer you up soon!
Thanks Barbara. For some reason I’m unable to access your blog. Do you have a new link? Thank you for your kind comments as always.
Wonderfully expressive people! I’m annoyed by anything that interrupts my roaming about the countryside time too! Hope you finish up your work and get back to what you love soon.
Yours,
Nanina
I need to get away from this office for a much needed walk in the hills. Your lovely work on your blog has inspired me no end.
Great sketches
Thank you for taking the time to visit and leaving a comment. It’s very much appreciated.
For not wanting to mingle, these are good!
You’re always too kind to me.
I can certainly relate. I dread parties… I work hard at being lively and social on a regular basis, but it’s a challenge. I look forward to evenings of solitude with red wine. mmm…. Beautiful sketches from such an astute observer of expression. Amazing.
Thank you Amber. I’m more social than perhaps I pretend, but I’m not a party goer. Having a glass of Shiraz right now 🙂 Appreciate your kind comments on the little sketches.
