Sketchbooking

Tonight for the first time in a while (too long) I went to the art evening with the Reuters journalists.
As always it is such great energy.

I didn't want to do anything too serious, and I didn't have any specific plans.  It is an instructor-led session but very informal, people can do what they want. But I figured I'd do a sketchbook page in pastel based on whatever Leah was demo-ing.
She did leafless trees, so I made some up.
It was a nice meditation.

I think I am going to start using my gouache sketchbook for pastels, I just can't fall in love with gouache like I wanted to.  I'll still use them now and then I'm sure, but I'm transitioning to pastels instead.
