Some stuff from lately

It's freezing down here in the basement so I am going to post these quick and then get back upstairs to warmth!

A few weeks ago we woke up to a beautiful hoar frost. I was able to get some fun pictures. While I was out there a train went by the property behind us and I couldn't resist a train shot. I actually love living next to the train tracks.

If you want to see them better, I belive you can click on them.

This is my conte crayon drawing of a still life that our teacher set up. I have never used conte crayons before, so this was a fun treat! We only had four colors to use (black, white, brown and a light orangish color), and it was a challenge to portray the still life using only those four colors, especially since the cloth in the back was actually a hot pink!

I took this while leaving the church one night, luckily I had my camera with me for a shot!

Now I need to go upstairs and thaw out!
