I've done but one drawing in the past couple of weeks. I actually went into retirement, but can't stay away from making the odd memory drawing to keep my hand in the art. The drawing was inspired by a ballpoint pen that I was gifted, and a piece of acid free drawing paper that was sitting on my bookcase. The drawing, of Katherine Cove up Lake Superior Provincial. Pk. way, turned out quite good. I've yet to scan or photograph it, so we'll save it for another posting, and another day. For the moment, I invite those of you that may have wandered into this site, the opportunity to visit my publisher, Blurb.ca, and preview a book that I wrote some time ago that contains some nature experiences, some art, as well as some personal stuff. There's no charge. You can preview the entire book for free if you wish. On the other hand should you wish a PDF copy to peruse at your own speed it's quite inexpensive, I believe only $5.00 U.S., or thereabouts to download. In case you get the impression that I'm trying to boost sales, and make a buck, have no fear, I declined any royalties leaving sales and distribution entirely to my publisher.
It will be new year in a few days, so let me wish everyone all the best for the coming New Year. Let's hope that it's a better year, and that the angst that grips the world regarding wars and global economics softens, and world leaders enjoy a little common sense and bring some peace to the world.
Best wishes for everyone!
