So, dear readers (if I have any left) I thought I'd show you a coloured pencil project I completed last month. I haven't done any coloured pencil work in well over a year, enamored as I've been with the immediacy and instant gratification of (or not, as the case may be) sketching in my sketchbook (not to mention my return to pottery-making back in September - could THAT be a reason my blog posts dropped off?). Anyway, I took a picture of a rose back in 2008 which, out of the 20,000 plus images clogging my Mac, has remained imprinted on the retina of my brain. I've just always wanted to draw it. So, finally, here it is. On Stonehenge black paper (I think).
Hello? Is anybody out there? Apparently, rule 1 of blog-keeping is to post regularly. It keeps one's readers interested. Well, here it is February (Groundhog Day, in fact). My last blog post was in September. Let me count on my fingers now. That's, um, five months ago. Five months. Didn't I say something in my last post about commitment issues? Yes, yes I did. I thought I was referring to keeping up with a sketching project (which I've managed, haphazardly, to stick to). It turns out that it's my blog that I have a hard time committing to. Patient old blog. It's still here, eager to please.

Welcome to my occasional posts
My name is Yvonne Rezek. This is a blog about what my hands are up to. Mostly sketches and drawings, some of my pottery, maybe even some knitting.
