Wonderful Family Time

On Sunday I visited my Aunt Mimi and Uncle Harry.
My uncle had told me to bring my pen and drawing pad with me, as he said there were lots of people to draw there at lunch. (Clever man). I was a little intimidated in the dining room to draw, but did one quick sketch you can see at the bottom of this post. Being a newcomer there everyone was watching me making drawing a tad daunting. So I stopped.

But when we got back to their home I drew this of my dear sweet aunt.
I still am not great at capturing what a person actually looks like; they are more caricatures of them.
So I showed this to my aunt when I got done.
She said: " A nice little lady."
And that she is!
I think I captured her essence in the body pose, and her hands.

My dear sweet uncle still very sharp of mind is a great conversationalist and had lots to talk about.
I so enjoy being with him and hearing his stories; and sharing his love of family. Thank you both for having me and for such an enjoyable visit!


And this is one gentleman eating alone in the dining room. He was having dessert when I quickly put him and it on paper.
It was a lovely Sunday visit with two very wonderful people.
Till next time I send my love!
