Brenna's new drawings

[vaneramos]

I almost forgot I wanted to post a scan of one of the wonderful drawings Brenna has done in the past couple days.

It started when Sylvie and Sarah came over for dinner on Tuesday. Later on Sarah asked for some drawing materials, and I got out my box of art pencils. Brenna was impressed with what she did and has done seven drawings since then. This is the one we both like best. It is about actual size.

I didn't let the girls use my art pencils when they were younger, for fear of them getting lost and broken. Now that is going to change. Brenna especially likes working with the pencils which have a charcoal texture because they blend so nicely. I love the effect, but can't stand working with them myself; it gives me the same feeling as fingernails on a blackboard.

Brenna says, "Soybean pencils?"

I haven't heard of them either. I'll have to try them. I have worked almost exclusively with coloured pencils since I started doing art again five years ago. Have you seen my drawings? A few are posted here.

Hey, no fair, where's my "COOL!"? 8^{>}

Soybean crayons, actually, though I don't know what would stop them making them in pencil form.

Your drawings are stellar. They stoke up my constant low-level wish for more artistic ability.
