Another hobby - Drawing

30 Day Blogging Challenge

Besides writing, tell us about a hobby you have. How did you discover it? How long have you been doing it?

I like to draw. I have taken a few workshops to play at sketching and watercolour.

When I was a kid, my mom and I would hike out along the trails, take a picnic and our sketch books and draw in some nice little meadow area. I liked the quietness and peace of it. It was also something fun to do with my mother. My mother is pretty good. We have also taken pottery and watercolour classes together.

I find when I go out for the day, particularly in the summer I like to take my notebook, my sketchbook and my computer. That way I can read or draw, depending on my mood.

I have also a sketched student who used to fall asleep on me. She had Rett's Syndrome. I often shared the drawings with her family. That young lady has since passed away, but I still have those wonderful memories of her and my drawings.
