meteor toy camera, pencil drawing

meteor camera, drawing

Here is my finished pencil drawing of the meteor toy camera that I featured in the short video in my previous post. This is the fifth addition to the Sketchbook Project 2012.  I'll be digging through my Father's old camera collection again to see what I might draw next.  

I'm planning to include 15 drawings and filling the other pages with text. This time I'm not sending my originals, but copies instead;  these books stay in Brooklyn Art Library's permanent collection.

My Mother's fridge is layered with tidbits and magnets - an abridged history of events through the years.   I plan to add a drawing or photo collage of those to this sketchbook of collections.

Wishing everyone a good week. Also keeping Norway in my thoughts as I have friends there.

Just so much enjoy seeing & hearing about this project you're working on, Juana. I just may have to join in on this next year, if I can! Many thanks for you loving comment at my place. We are still in great shock & sadness over the tragedy that happened here this past weekend. Thank you for thinking of us! :o) ((HUGS))

Married Shadows

My husband and I haven't had a T.V. for the last 15 years, maybe more, so we often go to see movies at the Cinema. The last couple of ones that I've enjoyed have been Transformers II and Terminator IV. Two more of my favorites are Slumdog Millionare and Milk. These latter two were well done movies from all angles (acting, script, cinematography). This is us after an afternoon at the movies and eating out. We had just come from Starbucks and were heading to the train station. For more shadow shots and to learn how to join this Meme, please visit Hey Harriet's blog .
