It has been over a week since I last posted in my blog but a million things have been in my way and also the fortunate arrival of a beautiful grandaughter. I thought I had a good picture of her last night but it is blurry. Hope for better luck tomorrow when I go over and help with the bath. It is such a precious moment to carry a baby and watch how it examines every part of your face with such interest and curiosity while it clutches it's hand to your finger.
We have had a values class at Wet Canvas in the Drawing and Sketching forum and it has taken me away from my painting this week but I do have another abstract on my easel hoping to be finished tomorrow. In the meantime I will post a partial of the drawing for the value class.

Thank you Lesley! I feel that way too about drawing but there is something to it that pulls me back everyonce in a while.
Many congratulations Mary. I can imagine you might be wanting to do a few new drawings.............
Thank you, Katherine! yes I have been thinking of a monthly portrait of the baby.
That's a fabulous idea and you maybe could give it her as a portfolio when she has grown up?
Thank you Robin! Little babies grow so fast that each moment in her life should be enjoyed fully.
Congratulations Mary, your joy at the new baby shines through.
