You don't have to be a fan of a certain US presidential candidate to thrill to the words 'yes, we can.' For most of this week I was dragging my cold-addled self around like a thrift shop mattress. I was drawing and painting like one, too.
Today, I felt some better. I kept telling myself I can, I can do it, in spite of this week's evidence to the contrary. Here are some sketches and a couple of fountain images from Paris, drawn there, painted here. You know, they're not the best things in the known world, but they're not the worst, either, Oui, je peux. Si se puede.

Just wrote a comment about the anemomes. Then I found the sketch of the horses in the fountain that I had referred to. Great sketch and beautiful colors. That cold that is "making the rounds" is a rough one; hope your are recovering.

Oh my, I think this is my favourite version of your water horses!
You are so brave painting on through your cold, Laura. I've taken to bed with mine, trying to decide which blog I caught it from yours or Katherine's ;)
Love your meeting sketches and your choice of candidate!
