I wanted to add some sketches to my posts and just never seemed to get them in my computer to post....so I kept putting off posting...but today I must. It has been just over a year since I hopped in my car and headed off on my epic trip last Labor Day. Today I am heading to the fair to drop off a few pictures I took on my trip as well as a few paintings my trip inspired.
Here are the sketches from my sketchbook that I did while on my trip last year.

Next stop after leaving Hot Springs was Fort Worth, Texas to visit my cousin Karen and her husband Jerry.
