I did something Wednesday that was totally fun and challenging! I met a friend downtown for a drawing and sketching adventure.  We found spots to draw.  I brought my sketchbook and my friend, her iPad.  It was a great experience.  I hope to do it again soon! When I arrived home, I used photos I had taken to add some color with watercolor paint.  My particular sketchbook is designed to hold watercolor paints.  It was a very fun process!  I felt like a kid again while painting in my sketchbook.

While practicing my tendus at ballet class at Joffrey Ballet Studios, Chicago, one morning I noticed a beautiful scene.   Among the hustle and bustle on State Street, a family of sparrows was sharing a meal in a freshly leafed out elm tree.
