With everyone still asleep this morning following Thanksgiving, Doozey and I are sitting here together on the couch drinking coffee and wondering about the day! The light started to stream into my kitchen window, and I suddenly felt the urge to do a quick sketch of the scene. The tiny Christmas tree as the focal point, with a little brown angel made from seed pods and a golf tee for a trumpet, being the focal point. I love waking up to the little glowing tree that I leave on all night (thanks to LED lights)...it emparts such joy and happiness!
Here is the view from my couch, into my tiny little kitchen with the sun streaming in. It is a scene of hope and peace for me. Happy Black Friday everyone!!!
I have always had a "thing" for the serene glow of sunlight in a kitchen! I see it only rarely in my own because my window faces the north, and besides my kitchen is usually way to messy to be serene.
ReplyDeleteBut I have a photo of the kitchen-sunlight in my old house, and my mom's house, and I enjoy seeing other peoples' kitchens.
I believe we need a close up of that angel!
ReplyDeleteAw, sweet. You and Doozey make a good pair starting the day out right.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great opportunity to do a sweet little sketch. I need to do that more often. jan
ReplyDeleteHI Julie
ReplyDeleteHope you had a nice Thanksgiving. Nice sketch. Must be fun having Doozey for company :). Sounds like a nice little angel... which reminds me - it's present shopping/making time!
Have a nice weekend, Ev
Julie thanks for stopping by....I'm sorry for being MIA in Blogworld...

Hi to Doozey!
HUGS
Well done, Julie....I LOVE your sketch and you also created a beautiful, ambient mood with your words.
ReplyDeleteI had to google Black Friday to see what it was as we sometimes refer to Friday 13th as Black Friday. lol
I love the ribbons and stars on your border of your blog page.
ReplyDeleteNot being a Christmas person myself I send you good wishes for that holiday now and hope you get much enjoyment from your little tree.
tee hee i am sitting here giggling, after all the hard work that we mums do, we are still the earliest ones awake, lovely sketch, lovely kitchen. mine is also very tiny.
ReplyDeleteNothing like a lap full of Doosey, sketching, a bit of sunshine and a cuppa to start the day off right.
ReplyDeleteNice sketch.It brings the scene before us.
ReplyDeleteOh Julie, this sketch is just darling. It really made me happy. I am trying to learn to draw and it's SO hard! I love your lines and vision. I just love everything about this sketch. So glad you took the time to do it and to share it here. Thank you!
