Our sketchcrawl at the Mission at San Juan Capistrano


My friend Susan and I went to the San Juan Capistrano Mission with the Southern California sketchcrawl group. I had such a good time but wish I had gotten to visit with more people. There was such a good turn out,about 20 people, that we only chatted with the people sitting next to us at lunch. I want to get to know everyone better next time, what a great group of people. The weather was great and at lunch we all passed around our sketch books to share. What a perfect day, after lunch Susan and I went back to the Mission and took a bunch of pictures, I will share later. In one of the fountains there were beautiful water lilies that were blooming in the most wonderful colors. Yellows, purples, pinks with big koi swimming under them. Here are a few of the drawings/paintings I quickly did. Thanks Jane, for setting this up, what a successful crawl you orchestrated.

I think your watercolors are just lovely. Of course the quilt is a wow, but these are so sweet, light as air, and delicate. Wonderful work! Keep at it, please.
