Photo Catch-up

Here are photos now that I have my camera back!!
Trees to go along with the 12-21-10 post:

I like working with the curve-y shape and will do more with this in the future.  Here's the one where the tree turned into this girl's hair: 

 Then the woods, not liking so much. I live in a sort of snowglobe of woods and am always trying to capture how much they change the light inside the house as the seasons change.  We're now in the gray/brown monochromatic of winter.

And this tree I like a lot, one of my better efforts. I photograph trees frequently as they have so much going on with them, the roots getting exposed, critters tunnel into them to make houses.  We think of trees as more static but really they aren't.  They change more subtly, that is until they fall over.

Then the photos for the 12-28-10 post of the little watercolor sketchbook and the possible future quilt of the sea:

It's a rudimentary little book with two copper rings so I can add and remove pages to paint them, about 4" x 6".

And finally I really like this little guy, made a pencil sketch to get the main lines, which I colored with my new Sharpies and then added the other waves with colored pencils (the ones I now know are not watercolorable, if that's even a word).  Such a pleasant, meditative feeling while I colored it, extra nice.
