Artwork of a Beginner

Throughout my lifetime, Autumn has always been a very busy season for me. All three of my sisters and my mom have birthdays during the fall, and there is usually some trip, conference, or gala smashed into the calendar as well. This year is quite different, and for the first time, I'm able to do some of the things I've always wanted. Painting and sketching, has been a long-awaited treat for me. I've never taken a single art course, but I found a beginner book and basic watercolor set in London. Here are a couple of my first artistic pieces. Thanks to my friend Steven Purcell for the inspiration!
