#31 of 365

I'm a little tea pot... drawn and lightly water colored in one of my sketchbooks, and done as part of the Sketchbook project. It was the teapot we used while camping along the Skagit River this past week, and we were sitting enjoying the quiet. Also done as part of a Scavenger Hunt drawings for Silly the Third. 

I did learn to use a heavier paper next time in case I decide to water color it.

This is from a photo assignment this week for Silly the Third. Faces from different things. I found these rocks in the sand on our walk along the Skagit River while we were there camping, and made them into a face. I also created the one below when I spilled some of my trail mix...
