Croatia Travel Journal – Finished!
I finished up my 2019 Croatia travel journal a few months ago but never got around to posting the last few sketches, and, since I hate to leave things unfinished, I thought I’d wrap up this project with one last post. Our day on the little island of Vrnik was one of the best of […]
Sketches from Croatia – Part 7 – Žrnovo
More armchair travel from my Croatia trip last fall… Most of our day trips on the island of Korcula had been to seaside towns, but one day we traveled a few kilometers inland to the lost-in-time village of Žrnovo. Sketch of buildings in Žrnovo by Leslie Fehling Ink & watercolor, 7.5″ x 7.5″, in a handmade […]
Sketches from Croatia – Part 6 – Sketching in Orebic
We pulled away from Korcula one morning on a ferry bound for the mainland where we would be sketching in the seaside resort of Orebic. That day, everyone chose their own view to sketch, and I picked this pretty iron gate. The flowers drew me in. I loved the way the pink flowers played off […]
Sketches from Croatia – Part 5 – The Peaceful Village of Račišće
Are you ready for a getaway? Let’s escape to the island of Korcula in the Adriatic Sea, a place I visited last fall that seems like a dream now. Those days spent painting old stone buildings and aquamarine seas were among the happiest I can remember, and, over the past few months, I’ve been reliving […]
New Spots Open in “Sketch Now – Travel Later”
My foray into online teaching is starting off with a bang! I had planned to begin slowly with one class of 12 people, just to get my feet wet with “Zooming”. I’m partnering with my friends at French Escapade to offer a travel sketching workshop while we’re all cooped up at home. But…… the day […]

Rincon Point Beach Sketches & More!
During my recent Santa Barbara workshop, I took the class on a sketching field trip to Rincon Point Beach, which was just down the hill from the barn where our class was held. Rincon Point is a world-famous surfing spot, but we settled in on the quieter side of the point where a long, crescent-shaped […]
Santa Barbara Mission Sketches
It’s the week before Christmas, and I’ve been busy shopping, wrapping, and making my signature Dark Chocolate Pecan English Toffee, but I thought I’d take a break from Christmas preparations to share a few more sketches from Santa Barbara that I hadn’t gotten around to posting earlier. This one is my favorite painting from the […]
California Road Trip – Part 1 + Creating a Flow Sketch
My workshop in Santa Barbara last month was a huge success, and the road trip that followed, although not quite what I had expected, was a lot of fun, too, and showed me a part of California that I had always wanted to see. I took hundreds of pictures along the way, so I have […]
