week #47-1/2: catching up

While I was baking, I resolved to draw again tonight. Some people do journal pages or morning pages and are diligent about it. I can't deal in the morning and this blog is my journal - usually at night, but sometimes during the day. The drawing thing, however, seems to be something that works best at night for me. Strangely relaxing. So, once again, I am playing catch-up with the assignments on Everyday Matters because I missed the whole year. The weekly drawing criteria for tonight's sketch are threefold +. 1 - Draw a shoe. Practically the only shoes I ever wear. When Jessica got married she said she didn't care what color my dress was, but I was NOT walking down the aisle in my Birkenstocks. 21 - Draw something old, antique or vintage. These are my first pair of Birks. They've gotten wet, had paint splattered on them, and are not only warped but in shreds. I wear them to take out the garbage or go for the mail when it is raining. I cannot part with them. 23 - Draw your foot. Pretty, it's not. But oh, well. 42 - Draw something you are thankful for. I already did this one, but it applies here. This is the "Florida" model and I am thankful that they have not discontinued it because it is the most comfortable strap configuration for my foot. I could not LIVE without my Birks, although I am always barefoot in the house. I have to say, I would know that foot anywhere. Goodnight
