Week of July 7, 2024 – A thoroughly Floridian climate, papers for Guesthouse, & colored pencils.

Final Note: The other day I realized that I wanted to draw something in color, so I procured some colored pencils. I soon discovered that my colored pencils had a texture akin to crayons and that my art skills are not the fanciest. However, I have also realized that drawing improves the images that reside in my mind. Below is my first exercise: Playa de Rodas (Rhodes Beach) of Galicia in Spain. The water there is known for being quite chilly, but it nevertheless looks very inviting. I’d hop in right now.

  1. Again the week offered many experiences, little doubt that the heat and humidity could be taken down a notch or two, but we made it through nonetheless. Certainly think that drawing helps the drawer to think differently. Thanks for sharing.
