My Photograph of the Coach Barn at L.A. Arboretum + May Sketch Art, Day 23 + 24 Sketches, Goddess + Mermaid...

I took this photograph of the coach barn at the L.A. Arboretum.  I used to play here when I was a child, I used to imagine that there were still horses there.  I love how the light is shining through the windows.  I hope that you will enjoy this photo! 

I love to paint horses, you may see some of my finished paintings at lisarusso.com if you'd like.

Here is a sketch of a big eyed maiden.  She has a sweet short hair cut and a serious expression.  I think she is most likely a goddess, although she could also be a fairy angel or a mermaid.  I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her.

I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in May.  This is from day 23.

This is a rough sketch. 

Here is a sketch of a big eyed gothic maiden.  She has long hair in fun pigtails with accents, this is my second version of her.  I think she is most likely a mermaid, although she could also be a goddess or a fairy angel.  I'm hoping to do a tiny painting of her and a tiny flapjack octopus, but I'm still working on getting her and her friend right.

I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in May.  This is day 24.

This is a rough sketch.  

My Photograph of Pink Flowers at the L.A. Arboretum + February Sketches Art, Day 8 Sketch, Fairy Angel, 29 Faces...

I took this photograph of these pink flowers at the L.A. Arboretum during a recent visit.  This is a close up of the winter blooming flower tree that I shared last Wednesday.  I thought it was such a beautiful tree...  I hope that you will enjoy this photo!

Here is a sketch of a big eyed gothic maiden.  She is adorned with a heart around her eye, I think I have hearts on the mind...  I think she is most likely a fairy angel, although she could also be a goddess or a mermaid.  I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her.

I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in February.  This is day 8.

This is a rough sketch.  I am also participating in the February 29 Faces Challenge, this is face 8.

My Photograph of Pink Flowers at the L.A. Arboretum + February Sketches Art, Day 1 Sketch, Mermaid, 29 Faces...

I took this photograph of these pink flowers at the L.A. Arboretum during a recent visit.  The light was shining through this tree filled with flowers even in our winter season.  I think perhaps some fairies were manifesting in the orbs...  I hope that you will enjoy this photo! 

I love to paint flowers and fairies, you may see some of my finished paintings at lisarusso.com if you'd like.

Here is a sketch of a big eyed gothic maiden.  Her hair is flowing wildly around her and something of interest has caught her gaze.  I think she is most likely a mermaid, although she could also be a goddess or a fairy angel.  I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her.


I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in February.  This is day 1.
