EDM #111 Draw a Bowl
The drawing was easy. The bowl is a very nice periwinkle color milk glass bowl. I over painted it. Went back with some Chinese White watercolor straight out of the tube. It kinda worked. Live and learn.
New Computer
My laptop never did recover from its trip to the computer repair store. I didn't want to take it in as I knew what was wrong and didn't want to spend the funds. DH insisted and the computer shop confirmed that nothing was going to replace the burned out USB ports.
DH and I agreed to purchase a new desktop. DH is a flight sim fanatic and wanted his desktop back. Off to Best Buy and I bought a Dell Inspiron with Windows 7. Other than an issue with the new anti-virus, I like this desktop. The old laptop still works so I might just use it like a netbook. Only one problem - the back-up I did when the laptop's USB ports still worked did not back up all of my Itune files. Bummer - I have to find a way to transfer them via the Internet.
Still trying to learn Windows 7 but I like the backgrounds that come with it. There are some wonderful illustrations. But Windows 7 is very much like a Mac in some regards.

EDM #109 Draw a Clock You Have Around Your House
This is my maternal grandmother's clock. It is one of my prized possessions. It is not very valuable - just to me

EDM #164 Draw a Camera
From my new desktop/printer/scanner set up. I didn't want the Epson printer bundle but it was cheaper to get it. I like my Canon Lide much better.
This is my "everyday" run around camera which gets thrown in my bag. It was also an experiment in watercolors as I made black from dark blue, cad red, and dark brown. The W&N set I use is so old I cannot remember what color names are in the set.

EDM #201 Draw a Stapler
I was told by DH that it looks like the top of a school bus. This is a really old stapler which is a prized possession of mine.

EDM #190 Draw Your Palette or Selection of Colors
This is the first sketch of my goal to sketch one item from the Everyday Matters list.
It is also the first page in a new journal I am creating since I can't find exactly what I want.
