Originally uploaded by saunjune

1st phase of my suzi petite doll project...got my drawing on a painted and collaged backboard. The summer has flown by so quickly, the kids just started back to school and I have a tiny bit of free time on my hands. I enrolled in this class at the end of May, and have had no real time to work on any of it since the kids got out of school in early June. I took my sketchbook w/ me and made several drawings while traveling, (and boy did we do some traveling this summer), there was just never enough time to get to the painting portion of class. I realized as the kids went back to school this class only has one more week of open participation left, so I thought I'd better get to work and get something done! So far so good. :)
