New Review for REKINDLED, Book 6: Peaceful Pilgrims Series

I received a new review for REKINDLED, Book 6: Peaceful Pilgrims Series:
 
4 Stars! “Author Karen Wiesner has added a wonderful new installment to the Peaceful Pilgrim Series. Each character is well developed and has an interesting background story. I could see and understand what each character was going through and why they reacted the way they did. This is a clean romance. No hot bedroom scenes. I also love the fact that no one in the story is perfect. Mistakes are made. Regrets happen. Several of the characters must work through the problems, sometimes helping others as they do so. This made the tale more realistic to me. Well done!” ~Huntress Reviews

Crooked Nature Art

Crooked Nature Photograph @ by Karen Wiesner
​We went to the UW-Madison Arboretum last weekend, and I took this photograph of a very crooked tree. I said to those I was with, “If this tree was sketched, no one would believe it was based on a real tree.” So I had to sketch it. I hope it looks real. I really like the texture. There’s no way to draw all those leaves, so this is what I think is a good way of suggesting leaves. I used an embossing tool in various sizes to “score” random shapes around branches and them draw a variety of interesting shapes over them. The branch boughs come out marvelously textured in this way. I made long, jagging, and uneven stripes along the tree to give it bark texture. When I filled in with pencil, I deliberately kept some of the areas white. I love doing trees and leaves like this.

REKINDLED, Peaceful Pilgrims Series: Book 6
 
Landon Robinson and Nickira Cassidy met and fell hard. The only child of filthy rich parents, she’s an heiress with obligations to fulfill. Her father had picked out the son of a close business associate for her when she was just a teenager, and she was already engaged years in advance of the anticipated wedding of the century.
 
Landon convinced her to give it all up for him. He’d never fallen for any woman before, but he lost his head completely over Nickira. Her family disowned her when she got pregnant. In the fallout, a princess realized she wasn’t cut out for squalor and a dirt-poor playboy didn’t have the skills to hold onto the heaven he never expected to capture.
 
Forty years later, divorced, neither of them feel any older or wiser. Reconciling how badly they’d messed up the one thing in their lives they both wish they’d given themselves to unconditionally seems impossible. Can dying embers rekindle?

NEW REVIEWS
 
I received my first review for REKINDLED, Book 6: Peaceful Pilgrims Series:
 
4 Stars! “The motif of a couple reuniting after years apart is not uncommon in romance fiction, but making that couple middle-aged grandparents is seldom seen. I enjoyed reading a passionate love story between two people of mature years. Their youthful romance reminds me of Romeo and Juliet, falling in love at first meeting, in defiance of the furious opposition of the girl's father. Instead of a tragic double suicide, however, the whirlwind elopement of Landon and Nickira ends in a bitter breakup that would apparently justify an ‘I told you so’ reaction from Nickira's family. After sad misunderstandings, faults on both sides, and decades of estrangement, how can these two possibly reconcile with each other and rediscover a deeper, more solid incarnation of their first love? Although a happy ending seems impossible for them, the author leads us to accept it as not only possible but, finally, inevitable. I admire the intensity created by sticking to the classic ‘unities’ of time and place, with all the present-time action occurring over a couple of days dominated by preparation for a wedding--a situation ideal for forcing long-separated family members together with stressful emotions running high. At the same time, strategically constructed reminiscences and flashbacks lend depth to the story, as do the subplot threads involving Landon and Nickira's children. We root for the hero and heroine and believe in their hard-won emotional growth.” ~author Margaret L. Carter

In that case alone, I will work on a schedule. Otherwise, I'll just follow whatever makes sense to work on at any given time: 2025 WIP Goals: https://karenwiesner.weebly.com/works-in-progress.html

Zinnia in the Dirt Sketch @ Karen Wiesner
This year, for the first time, I planted seeds and had them come up. This first zinnia came up in a very dirty, messy place. I took a photograph of it, printed it, then sketched it. After that, I printed two copies of my sketch. The first copy, I rendered in watercolor. The second, I used coloring pencils. The dirt and debris was the hardest to deal with in each of the mediums. Not sure I was entirely successful, but in any case, I had fun working on this one photograph in a variety of ways.

House in the Woods Sketch

PictureHouse in the Woods, Day 1 Sketch @ Karen Wiesner
This sketch of a house in the woods was done over the course of two days. I did light lines to set the house and fences in place, then I worked on the forest around it along with the yard plants. Today I darkened all the lines and added details. I'm not sure how to do realistic water. Apparently the shore line at the bottom was supposed to be horizontal without any vertical to help achieve that. I really like the technique I used for creating texture in the plants. It's very hard to see in the (bad) photo I took of the sketch though, so this really doesn't do it justice. Another one you have to see it in person to get the full effect. I loved doing this. Loved the straight lines and the forest texture. I want to do more like this next week.

Vintage Artwork @Karen Wiesner
Some "vintage" sketches I did. Kids are very hard. They have big heads and no necks so they look like small adults. But I also feel like these two sketches are a little like the Little House kids book illustrations (though, of course, nowhere near as good). I'm enjoying these.

​I’m easing back into art and chose a simple, coloring pencil project. Started out promising the first two days but I didn’t end up loving the end product the final day. In any case, it did give me back my eagerness to return to practicing art.
