Ironcially, Andrea posted in her comment yesterday on my blog post that she'd like to "see me draw this". Well, guess what? I was just beginning to sketch it. Bud and I mowed and edged our lawn in the front before it got too hot [nice morning breeze was keeping the temp tolerable]. Afterward, when I came back in to cool down and drink water, I grabbed my sketch pad and pencil, opened my blog to the photo and began drawing...

I finished it after lunch dishes...

I titled it Amarillo by Morning!
this is really beautiful, and the name is as pretty as the sketch/flower.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sandra.
DeleteWe thought that storm might come this way, but it has changed 3 times in 2 days and I just checked it on radar and looks like it might go over cuba, the keys and out in the atlantic. we are are on Hurricane watch 24/7 until the end of November
DeleteHope maybe some rain without damaging storms?!!
DeleteIt's just gorgeous! You are a very talented lady, Miss Anni!
ReplyDeleteCranberry orange muffins are one of my favorites too, Anni!
DeleteThanks M&M. Yep, those muffins are best!!!
DeletePs...have you tried triple chocolate muffins (that's Bud's favorite..
DeleteBut, I don't think Molly can have anything chocolate, right?)
Well done, beautiful sketch and flowers. Take care, enjoy your day!.
ReplyDeleteThank you!

DeleteAmarillo by morning is my favorite George Strait song...what a beautiful sketch...I remain in awe of your sketches.
ReplyDeleteSnake: I probably should have put this on the blog. We saw it on the trail as we headed back to the car.
On the WAY BACK up the Stairs to heaven we saw two young whippersnappers coming down
they advised they had seen a snake. As we were entering the park parking lot we saw them again. They told us they saw 2 more. We probably will not hike that trail again due to the rough terrain. So thankful we started our trek early, when it was still cool which might have kept the slithery critters hiding.
I seriously HATE snakes!!
DeleteThat is so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jeanette
