Here are some of the artifacts from our snowy weekend. This drawing of my friend Moreton is too big for my scanner, so here are two sections out of three. She looks a bit solemn because we were talking about our elderly, ill mothers as I drew her. The rest of the night was very festive, with her delicious Moroccan meal to savor and our lovely, witty husbands for company! 
I'm using my oil pencil here again. It is the Cretacolor oil pencil I wrote about here, not a china marker. I love them!
Birds ate, too.
They flitted and strutted and waited their turn at the foot of the feeder.





These drawings are awesome!!! I really, really like your work!
and thanks for visitig my blog!

I love these little birds--your quick sketches, whether vehicles or birds, all seem to have something perky and quick about them.
Nice to see a new one of Moreton... good subject.

Moreton is such an unusual name. I love your sketch of her. Does she know we have a Moreton Bay and that Moreton Bay bugs are a seafood delicacy? http://www.sea-ex.com/fishphotos/bug,1.htm
