The Final Touch — For the Sketchbook Project
I couldn’t resist sketching this photo we took the day we trimmed the tree. Sorry my DH, I didn’t do you justice…your face is just at a weird angle, lol!
Only 12 more pages, and 14 more days left…
Putting the Star on the Tree
Published by Tahirih Goffic
After a tumultuous past as a goat milker, laundress, fine art major, waitress and restaurant owner, I've now downscaled to running my own Cafe/Gallery in an effort to maintain a social life and make a few bucks. I live a ridiculously idyllic existence in a fairytale village called Bella Coola on the West Coast of British Columbia with my charming musician husband, two amazingly creative children, and a dog whose favourite past time is eating rotten dead fish and rolling in poo. In my not so spare time I love to invent healthy whole food recipes, write YA fiction, play guitar, or curl up in my favourite chair with a great book and a gigantic mug of strong black coffee, all while daydreaming of living in Ireland...

Hey there, fellow last-minute-sketchbooker! 😉 (I'm in a hurry with mine too)
This sketch is wonderful. I think it conveys that magic Christmas-y feeling just perfectly!

Ouch! Talk about pressure! 12 in 14 days?
This is terrific though, and honestly, I don't think I'd send it in; it's too precious! (I know you have the scans…maybe you could put them into a blurb book, or issuu?)
