Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water
Jack fell down and broke his crown,
And Jill came tumbling after
Hello, Kitten & Dawgs! We all know this classic nursery rhyme, especially the first verse but do you know the second and third? I do not. According to Wikipedia, these are the 20th century, which is slightly re-written from earlier versions.
Up Jack got and home did trot,
As fast as he could caper;
And went to bed and bound his head
With vinegar and brown paper
When Jill came in how she did grin
To see Jack’s paper plaster;
Mother vexed did whip her next
For causing Jack’s disaster
Wouldn’t you know the girl is a fault here? Poor ole Jack just didn’t have a chance. 😀
I hope today’s art sketch encourages you to pursue your lost passion. It’s easy to allow time to rob you of simple joys. If you’re rusty then it’s time to oil those hinges and get started! If you’re afraid to try, just do it! What do you have to lose? Absolutely nothing! Who knows you might be surprised to at what you can accomplish when you set your mind to it. I know I was! 🙂
I need a job, jolt me with your “J”-spiration to get me back to my sketch pad, just jump to comments and jabber away and if I use yours then I’ll add a link back to you!
It’s time to jet off to link up with other fellow AtoZers and you’re invited to come along. I’ll see you tomorrow for the next installment of Art Sketching through the Alphabet!
