- You have until Saturday, September 27th to complete your drawing.
- You should then post your entry on your blog sometime on Saturday, September 27th.
- I will create a post on this blog on Sunday, September 28th with links to everyone's entry.
Art Guidelines
- Any medium is fine -- graphite, charcoal, digital painting, colored pencils, watercolor, pen & ink, etc. have all been used.

I just could not resist doing this in color. So in a self-education effort, I've use Derwent inktense pencils on pastelboard for the color version. My first use of both materials. Take a look at tintsandhues.blogspot.com. Thanks again for getting back on the art path after a long summer of gardening.
