Fantasy Destinations, Tropical Sunrise in Florida, by Penny StewArt

Tropical Sunrise with Sailboat, in Florida

ACEO 2.5 x 3.5 inches, watercolor and pen

I have never been to Florida, and one of my internet facebook friends, Robin, lives there, on a sailboat, so I imagine this is what she sees every morning, from the deck of her little abode. I used to live in Hawaii, so this could be a view from my distant memory, or maybe when I went to the beach in Venice, California. I still live in the Los Angeles area, so palm trees and the ocean are always nearby.

Time Away From Home, Disneyworld by Joan Tavolott

Since I had this sketched for today I am posting my second sketch of the day. In 1977 I took my first trip to Disneyworld in Orlando, Florida with a few friends on spring break. I love all the Disney characters, and enjoyed going on all the rides. This was sketched from a photo I had taken at the parade they held in the evening. I think the costumes have improved since this little dwarf walked in the parade. In my photo it looks like his beard is made of plastic. lol
