A quick step-by-step ...




step 1: rough sketch with china marker on heavy parchment


I liked the quirky position.



step 2: china marker
Darkening, shading and thinking about background.


step two: china marker in red and black

China marker is really fun to play with.


step 4 china marker + gesso

I covered the red background with white gesso, 
then scribbled in it while it was wet. 
A few highlights in gesso. 

Which do you like best?








Got up early to go to Tustin's Cream Pan Bakery.





You see I needed strawberry croissants, big time.





I am going to Stacy & Michael's engagement party ...
and I said I'd bring sweets!




and this really fits the bill.





If you go, expect a wait, I was 16th in line at 8:15 am.
And yes, it really is that good!
 




I have just mentioned their famous strawberry croissants, 
they have cakes, rolls, breads and so much more.
I get no free croissants for mentioning this bakery,
buy would be open to it, if it happened! ;o)











A smile for Sunday ...
