Last week my friend Janet asked to meet me at Tacos Jalisco for lunch. We hadn't seen each other in a very long time. However, Janet is the kind of friend, who when you finally do connect again, it's as if you never skipped a beat! We had fun catching up on each others lives ... But before she got there, I had time to draw these folks and ...
...these folks! Then Janet arrived and we ate "the Lynn" (burrito bowl) and talked and talked and talked!! Thanks for coming, Janet!
Music by my DH is always a special event! Some times daily!
This time while he sang some very romantic songs I drew and painted him live.
Lucky me
Having such a talented husband, who after that first song he sang to me in 1978 on our first date, Farewell to Tarwathie", is still serenading me and making my toes curl! ;-) 35 years later!
Happy paint party Friday and Sunday Sketchers!
Thanks for all your wonderful visits and comments, they feed my artistic soul!
Lovely keepsakes from a wonderful day!!!! well done!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful that your husband still makes your toes curl.:) Love your creativity and it nice to re-connect with a friend afore. I know what you mean about having a friend that you don't see for a time and when you do, it's like yesterday. Nice. Take care. Happy Paint Friday to you too.
ReplyDeleteAll great as usual. Nice keep sake of your hubby playing his guitar & singing. I can attest that he is a wonderful guitarist and singer. Loved our Plein air painting, last year, to him serenading us along the River here. HPPF
ReplyDeleteHow special to have a husband that serenades you and keeps your toes curling!!
ReplyDeleteGreat job sketching him!
Its such a lovely feeling to have friends who you can connect with in-spite of all the distance. Great sketches :)
ReplyDeletedoes he play and sing at Jaliscos? wonderful he still makes your toes curl! I need to come to CA to visit Robin and yourself and order "The Lynn." LOL
ReplyDeleteYou will be most welcomed Ms. Suki!
DeleteThe best friends are friends that can pick up right where you left off, even years between seeing one another. Isn't it wonderful to have friends like that and to spend time together? The best is the romantic toe curling hubby and his ability to romance you through his songs. That's wonderful.
ReplyDeleteAfter all our years of marriage my husband still plays the piano for me but now with earphones, so I don't hear a note..............lol Loving the fab sketches, you are so the best. Hugs Annette x
ReplyDeletelovely skteches, thanks for sharing your good life!
ReplyDeleteHi Lynn, loved to read your blog today, how nice to read about how your toes curl :)How good time you must be having, I love to sit and listening to someone play and sing. Yesterday we had a song contest in my school. 35 kids were taking part, 25 groups. It was so much fun and I ant describe how good they were and Im still thinking how they can stand in front of all the people and sing even 8 years old.
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful day.
True...as Siggadisart wrote...it was lovely reading your blog today...and that sketch of DH playing music is priceless! Wonderful to keep the romance alive!
ReplyDeleteHappy PPF!
ReplyDeletelove how you paint your everyday life. And a husband that serenades you .... Can't beat that ... :-)
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful Lynn, you are really lucky! :-)
ReplyDelete1978! I was 6-7 at that time and just started school...

I love friendships like that. Because I've moved around a lot I have friends I rarely, if ever, see and it's wonderful when we do finally meet up to discover we just fall back into that same old familiarity - a sign of a good friendship, I think! And how wonderful to be serenaded by your romantic husband while you paint him!!
ReplyDeleteOne day soon I hope to go to a coffee shop and pretend I'm you and just start drawing. I'm so impressed with how you "just do it," and capture so much of life. Thanks for sharing your wonderful work. I always love it, but I REALLY love the photo of the guitarist and your portrait of him. What a great tribute!
ReplyDeletegreat drawings happy ppf
ReplyDeleteAwe this post gave me goosebumps!! He is so much like Beardo... who also serenades my daughter! I love it! These paintings are a bit softer than normal..did you do something different...less noticeable pen?.... Dh looks like an amazing man!Very nice paintings!!
ReplyDeleteHugs Giggles
And the top teo are actually lighter overall than i usually do!These paints look so light because I took the photos with my iPad and posted them from it too.
DeleteYou have a fabulous life you know... and so glad you share it with us....xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet day for you Lynn! Catching up with a close friend and being serenaded by your hubby! Lovely drawings too!
ReplyDeleteWonderful work I love the picture of your husband. How nice to be serenaded daily!! HPPF
ReplyDeleteThat is truly romantic, Lynn, and a marvelous painting too! I don't think I could make my wife's toes curl with my singing, but I believe I can with my art and words - LOL! Have a blessed Mother's Day!
ReplyDeleteYou are blessed with artistic talent and a loving musician for a husband ~ Be well, be happy ^_^
ReplyDeleteHow sweet to have a wonderful soul mate who still serenades his bride. Love the sketches. HPPF
ReplyDeleteLynn, I always especially enjoy the pieces you do of your husband! You really seem to capture him!
ReplyDeleteI've been feeling a little low, and coming here and looking at all your beautiful work always cheers me up.
Sorry to hear you are not feeling the best. Glad my drawings and words lift your spirits! Hugs!
DeleteHi Lynn,
ReplyDeleteLovely sketches to remember the good times; as always, you capture the moments beautifully!
