Bright and sunny for the duration

The rain ended and I doubt we'll see more until November or later. That's sad for me since I love rainy weather. It's softer, much softer.

There's only one more project to do for my class this semester. We're to use an old-fashioned grid over a photograph and draw a self-portrait. I'm familiar with grid work, I can do this.

After that, the remainder of the class will be to work on and assemble our portfolios to present our ten best pieces for a final grade. My head is above water. This is only Drawing I and I've finally gotten that far!

The nasturtiums I planted by seed a few weeks ago are coming along nicely. They aren't showing any signs of blooms yet, but the leaves have that characteristic round shape. I figured I'd draw them into life.
