Here is my sketchbook from this past summer's adventures to Verona, Venice, Lake Garda, Mantova, Giverny and Paris: 2016, Volume 4. (If you've missed my other sketchbook tours, I posted them in previous blog posts.)

On the list of the top five things I love you will find traveling, sketching, friends, family and enjoying food. These all came together during this trip. Color me joyful!

I hope you enjoy flipping through my sketchbooks. And if you have any comments or questions, don't be shy. For as much as I love painting big watercolor paintings, sketchbooks are my real source of daily creativity, my inspiration, my joy. I hope you enjoy!
