Tomorrow a Peach
I fully intended to draw two beautiful peaches resting on a brilliant blue plate. They were beautiful too, but we ate them. So here is a tea cup in a book instead. Tomorrow I'll try again with more peaches, while they're still in season.
I had to laugh when I read your post. After making it a point not to read text before I draw on it, I can't stop checking to see what it says afterward! The book is "After the War" by Richard Marius. Thanks for the comment!
Welcome to my site. I work in a public library amid books and computers, but am an artist and dreamer. Sometimes I am lucky enough to do a Streetpainting Festival (chalk on pavement). I post drawings on Flickr and have a couple of blogs.
Lately I do more art thanks to sharing online and seeing what other artists are doing. I'm originally from Alaska (born there) lived in Oregon and California and I now live in Arizona. I love my digital camera for saving ideas to use later. I enjoy blues music, Thai curry, and red wine. I admire anyone who does watercolor or Pastel.
What do I long to do? Take a life drawing class, which I haven't done since college days.

I love this drawing -- altered books can be so much fun! Can you tell me what book this is done in? (the text looked so familiar ...)
:-)

I like this a lot! (and I bet the peaches were tasty, too!)
