EDM Challenge 69: Draw a Beverage

This week's Every Day Matters challenge came at just the right time. I happened to have had a Smoothie for dinner and it was calling to me. I started drawing it in graphite, but the colors were more significant than the tonal shading, so I whipped out my Faber-Castell PITT artist pens and set about drawing it right away.


It was a nice, quiet day. I was writing my morning pages and whining about not having heard from younger brother and just then, my dad called. He wanted some phone numbers, so afterward I talked him into giving me Andrew's new cell phone number. Julia Cameron would call that "synchronicity." I called and we spoke. He was in Alabama, driving home from a work assignment. We made tentative plans to go get sushi when he has some free time and we are both in town.

I also had a friend contact me about buying a LeClerc 4-Harness loom. I plan to call the owner tonight. She is an artist on the Gulf Coast. My friend said I would want to tour the studio and spend some time talking with her if I went down there. I was not planning to get into weaving this soon, but a great deal on good loom would go a long way to getting me started on that journey. You just never know when things will fall into place.
