Still On a Roll Sketching

I figure I'll run out of steam before too long with all the sketching I'm doing; but, in the meantime, I'm going with it until the next slump or "recharge" period hits.

Anytime I'm out near the water, I'm always drawn to cypress knees.  Love when seeing them in large groups as it just looks like people standing around or walking along the base of the trees.  And because there are always large and small grouped together, it reminds me of families.

While sitting at my desk, I decided to sketch a portion of a bookshelf near by.  I set up a small bookshelf to hold my finished journals....separating them from all the "work in progress" journals I have on another shelving unit behind me.  I chose to sketch part of the bottom shelf that only had a few items on it like art DVDs.  I wasn't sure how I would approach the crystal bowl with blue aquarium rocks and as I sketched, decided to just suggest it.
