Texas Family Home

"TEXAS FAMILY HOME"
Pen and Ink Drawing
8"x10"
by
Margie Whittington

This is the second drawing of a family's home that I
have done recently. They have a collection of pen and ink
drawings of all the houses they have lived in and this is their current home.
I did a drawing of their former home on one of the
snow days we had last week.
It has been a week since our last cold spell with snow here in
Fort Worth and the snow, ice and temperatures in the teens is
here again.  Usually I teach watercolor classes on Wednesday at
The Upstairs Gallery in Arlington, Texas. http://www.upstairsartgallery.com/
Not today,  driving conditions aren't good and I certainly
don't want to drive and I don't want any of my students to
have to get out either.  So it is a good day to stay in, draw or
paint, sip hot cocoa and listen to an audio book! The book I am listening
to is entitled "The Winding Way Quilt" by Jennifer Chiaverini.

Come back soon to see the next art project or
hear about the current book I am listening to.

This is the drawing from last week.  The family's former home.
