[Faces 16 and 17].....

Happiness cannot be traveled to...
owned, earned or worn...
it is the spiritual experience of living every minute
with love, grace and gratitude...
.....Denis Waitley

More fun sketching with graphite...

adding glasses...
and the tiniest splattering of blue pencil and pen...

and this young lady...

with a little practice in drawing fingers....

I have found a new appreciation of sketching...
it has become like a form of meditation...
and a wonderful way to lose myself...

 more than halfway through the 29 faces challenge now...
thank you my friends... 
as always...
 for your encouraging and beautiful comments...
I appreciate each and every one...
