Month, Thanksgiving, and the Coming of Winter!" is the November program

encourages adults to join in the drawing fun. Local patrons Wendy and

Apples & spheres - drawings, exercises, and watercolors.

Concept practices w different light directions on spheres in pencil, (demo whiteboard drawings).

Group or clump of spheres.

Variations of red spheres with cast shadow, direct watercolor painting. Notes explain the different experiments. In hindsight, those cast shadows are too far forward!

Watercolor from my reference photo of an apple bough against the sky.
