      love these sketches! Your figures are very expressive in their posture and rendering. They are very sympathetic figures!

            That slump is definitely relateable!

              The legs and arms really drew me in. Very accurate and expressive.

                  @Pamela-Fraley Ah look at that gesture in the second image! The elongated arms and stretched out legs make the piece! Well done! I can't wait to see more. 🙂

                    Thanks everyone! My quick little mood sketches have always felt a bit truer than the things I try hard to draw. I guess it just takes practice for the other stuff. As for the "teen" in the second sketch... Well I'm 34, and this was me after a loooong day with the kids and a frustrating day with an art piece. But yea, I can see that too.

                        Some of these are just practice sketches, but Ive also done a ton of requests from friends lately. I think I've sent out over 40 4x6 watercolors since December. Its good practice, but I want to get better at doing whole scenes. Plugging away everyday!

                          I have 2 year old twins. The 'slumped' picture is the story of my life!

                              Oh my, yes when time allows with five kids! Glad you'll be around more, I'm trying to as well, and I'm always more productive when "around" other creatives.

                              You have beautiful great pictures on your Instagram. I'm a fan!

                                  @Pamela-Fraley Just saw these--very nice expressive drawings. I am a mom of four trying to be an artist too. It did not occur to me that the lady at the table was a teen. Oh no. I recognized her as a mom!

                                        This is a stylized portrait I did today of Jessica Chastain. I was sick and in the couch all day, so I thought I'd practice pushing realism with a pencil sketch. Why not? 0_1471484771798_image.jpeg

                                            You're style is so fresh. I really like the energy in your line and the use of color. Nice work!
