Kim and Andrea have been doing Paris door drawings. Here is a San Francisco door, behind which I once lived. Robin sent me a photo of the door and I have been trying to draw it for a week or so. Finally it came out fairly okay except I wish I hadnt gone in with the brush pen and indicated the mottling in the marble facade. Drawn with a Micron pen.

what a fabulous new project. like this drawing a lot.
Charming door, Suki. Makes me wonder about the inside adventures!
Suki - I recognised this door at once! Ha-ha! I do believe that wonderous adventures were had behind this door.....hmmmm...perhaps a book in the making?
The sketch is spot-on!
Mother's Day dinner sounded delicious - and Aaron was so wonderful to do clean up!
Love,
♥ Robin ♥
Agree with Willow, charming...love the glass blocks on the side. This is a keeper!
I'm thinking those glass blocks weren't easy!
Some stories about inside that door would make for good blog posts,,,
I love this piece and I too recognized it too! xoxo
A very nice drawing. I bet you have many fond memories of the adventures behind the door.
A nice drawing. The photo was nice too, but your personal touches with pen and ink give it character.
What a great drawing. Everyone is into doing doors. I have painted a few in years past. They really are interesting.. How long did you live behind that door?
Doors are fascinating things. I don't know why, but I have always had a "thing" for doors and windows. I will refrain from remarking on your "wonderous adventures" and just use my imagination! :) I think you did a fine job on the door since I remember seeing the original photograph you posted some time back.
I like the drawing knowing the history behind it...it makes it special and warm.
Did I miss a post about this door before?
I love the drawing. The glass blocks are wonderful. I love the idea of a door project!

I like your door ink and all...are those glass bricks on the side of the door perhaps?
Love it Suki! Your mind must have been wandering back to all those memories whilst you were drawing...
Hey Suki, this door looks wonderful and the memories show through in every line. As I look at it I wonder what adventures this door opened for you and how it's opening to you changed your life. That is a lovely thing about doors, isn't it?
Thanks Suki and I am glad you like this adventure!
hey... Suki! this is so soulful... those lines... so vibrating and alive... i can feel the wonderous adventures...
