This week I am not hosting an auction.


This week has been a week of creative self-care.  I have been drawing in my sketchbook, images of Naomi and Prim mostly.


I love drawing with graphite.  I love the tonality of it, the variety of marks I can make on the paper.  A drawing can be smooth and refined or rough and raw, or anything in between.

One of my favorite things to do is to sketch at night. This drawing of pansies was inspired by a photo from @u_chibito. I’m so grateful for all the flower inspiration this feed has. #Elizabethfloydart #sketching #inkdrawing #drawingflowersmak
