Backyard farm sketches

There were a couple warm days when I spent time in the backyard on a swing under a big oak tree. The top is a sketch of an old gas tank that is no longer used. The bottom is a Martin house which we bought for my MIL. She had an older model that had been torn apart by the elements and she kept taping it back together with duct tape each year. Now she has a new one to last another 20 years.

Great sketches. How fun for you to have the time to just sit and sketch. I know how busy you had been at work.

I enjoy your view of your backyard! Like the pencil parks as they are soft and inviting.
