A Look Back



Watermelon sketch



The last days of September mark the end of summer in Rome. The longer days of summer, full of always unbearable heat, allow to do things I normally don't have time for.  I took a moment to flip through my sketchbooks, I would like to share some of my impressions. 





A chance to explore new places in my town.










 Observing the clouds from my window.



 Planted something green and watched it grow.



Spent quality time with whom I love.

Visited new places.

    Celia, your watermelon looks delicious, I need some . !!! Love all your sketches .
    When you say unbearable heat I hear you loud and clear. I live in Florida and I always say that same thing in summer.
