from my sketchbook ~ to a frame

Yours Truly holding one of my framed sketchbook pages 

I paint in a sketchbook. I rarely paint watercolors as frameable paintings anymore, I'm more interested in illustrating my daily life on the pages of a 9x12 inch sketchbook.

So when the San Diego Watercolor Society invited me, as a Past President (1999-2001), to exhibit one of my paintings in their 50th Anniversary Exhibition, August 7- 28th, I said yes. But I didn't have any so called 'paintings.' So, I had one of my sketchbook pages framed, and I'm liking it!

It will be interesting to see how it looks in the exhibition!
