Elephants part 2


Here are the elephants that I re-did after having the accident with the watercolor water. I think I'm just about ready to call them finished as the paper is starting to get a bit worn. I hate when that happens. Even though I use mostly bristol board which is a very hardy paper, it does start to show signs of wear after several layers of graphite.

So, I was quite lazy today. I didn't do any new drawings or anything even though I had the whole day, but I did work on the above elephants for awhile. I did make my carrots and potatoes in the crock pot today. I finally ate them at about 10:00 as I didn't fire them up until about 3:00 pm. So, now I've finally broken in my crock pot.

I feel like my post has been so boring that I might as well talk about the weather. I am thrilled that it is going to be in the 20's and maybe even 30's this week. I was getting pretty sick of being cold. My apartment actually feels comfortable tonight.

the elephants are quite lovely. i heart them and am glad you took the time to draw them again! Carrots and potatoes in crock pot sound good--even without the cow flavoring. The weather does sound like it is going to get quite balmy about midweek and i too am happy about that and believe it is not only worthy of a blog posting but a comment as well. happy monday.

downright balmy weather is approaching. Although it's probably not quite time to pack away the sweaters and snuggies, sounds like a nice break from the subzero zone is on the way! Hurray!

Very nice picture of your elephants and am glad you could save the drawing after the watercolor water.

Carrots and potatoes sound so good to me right now. Have you tried flavoring them in the crockpot with Lipton's dry onion soup mix and a can of cream of mushroom soup. It makes wonderful gravy!
