Sketching & Watercolor In A Mixed Media Journal

I'm back from a stay in the hospital, just in time to start Jane LaFazio's  Sketching & Watercolor In A Mixed Media Journal.  I've taken a number of Jane LaFazio's online classess, so I have most of my supplies on hand. The few items I need should arrive before I need them.

The first week's project is Everyday Objects, where the students collect a series of drawings of items around the on a journal page.  My first object, a little robot dog has been gathering dust on a shelf since I discovered how much mayhem it could cause around real dogs and cats.



I'm planning on adding 2 - 3 more objects during the coming week.  I have plenty of time to work on them; I'm grounded until the surgeon releases me,  at least another week.

The following photos are of a large (4" or so) praying mantis I found while I was clearing brush.  Looks like an alien, doesn't it?
