Catching up

I still have pages to complete .... Here is one from one first day in
stornoway. I am really enjoying adding maps to pages - the original
sketch might not be great but adding a map often makes the spread work.

I've always been tempted to add maps - I'll be interested to see how this works.

Dear Liz,
Recently I found your blog via Making a Mark and I am so enjoying your observations and sketches of Scotland. Beautiful! I so loved the photos of Borromini that I decided I needed a companion bear too as I travel alone alot painting and sketching en plein air so I "adopted" one from a neighborhood gift shop. I turned 60 this year and I figure I can do any silly thing I please and traveling with the little bear pleases me very much. Thank you so much for all the inspiration in your sketchbooks. The photos of BB just crack me up. Happy travelling and best wishes from Wiscconsin.
