List: Places I've Drawn [At]

"Winter is an etching,
spring a watercolor,
summer an oil painting
and autumn a mosaic of them all."
~ Stanley Horowitz

5.5x8.5" art journal page, exacompta journal, pitt pen, watercolor

A grammatically awkward post title, yet I leave it as it is because it's just a post title and not inherently urgent or permanent. If I left the original title, "Places I've Drawn," you would mistakenly think I drew our car, which is untrue. Anyhow, I'm happy to say I've seriously multi-tasked this piece, squeezing as much as I could out of this one little page.

This next part was like a treasure hunt through Daisy Yellow. Whew!

The list includes:

  1. The car
  2. In restaurants
  3. In infinite Starbucks
  4. At an indie cafe
  5. At Six Flags Over Texas
  6. At my dad's house
  7. At the beach
  8. At hotel pools
  9. In hotel rooms
  10. On a ginormous # of flights and more flights
  11. At the tennis courts
  12. On a train from Ghent to Bruges
  13. At airports
  14. In the bathroom while the kids are tubbying
  15. On the bed
  16. At outdoor summer swimming lessons
  17. At our pool
  18. At the soccer fields
  19. At the kids' gymnastics and dance classes
  20. At the kids' doctor/dentist appts
  21. At school
  22. At the tire repair store

And I forgot couldn't fit:

  1. At the bookstore
  2. At a restaurant in Bruges
  3. At a laundromat/washeteria in Trier, Germany
  4. At the breakfast table with a cup of tea in the middle of the night
  5. At the park

So this page represents all of this, wrapped up in a wavy package with a little brown raffia bow:

  1. A list for Aimee's List It Tuesday at Artsyville
  2. An art journal page for Day 16 of NaNoJouMo
  3. Line drawing practice
  4. Slow journaling
