I love Inktober

I learned about Inktober a few years ago. I've never officially joined,
and don't need prompts, but I love drawing or sketching with a marker.
This sketch is of me as a little girl.  I like it. I think you can
see how shy I was, and also a hint of my determination to keep
going.  That's something that comes and goes, so I appreciate
that it was there when I was a little kid. I think I'm two or three
in this drawing inspired by a small photo taken by one of my parents.

Today I had a wonderful day working on a painting for a future show.  I'd been
thinking about it for a week, so it was so much fun to draw it on the canvas,
and then start painting. Wonderful.

At the end of the work day Steven and I went down to walk by the lake.
It was magnificent there, and it was a beautiful walk.

Have a loving your life day!
