Last Ones Before Another Work Week




Always busy squeezing the last moments out of a weekend, I did a few 'quicks' before the weekend melts into Monday.

The roller skate is a real antique and I bought it from Ebay because it reminded me of the ones I had as a child -- metal wheels, rust and all. I can't wait until my sketching improves -- I want to do this one better! It so reminds me how much I miss roller skating/dancing with my dh!

Great sketches! I remember the roller skates, too...and how my best friend and I pulled them apart and nailed them to the four corners of an old plank of wood...and tried to ride it down the street. It kept going to one side.

I was just telling someone that my most favorite Christmas present of my entire life was my pair of roller skates when I was ten. I'll never forget flying along the sidewalk with them firmly keyed in place. I am so happy to see all of your sketches, Lin.
