It is pretty quiet around here. Cloudy, warm and very little chance of rain from the nice clouds. Shucks. I sketched a page in the brown paper Utrecht sketchbook with the Prismacolor Premier 05. By the way, this marker/pen has been going all summer. It has made many strokes and is still going strong. It has kept its fine line. After all this use, it does get a little heavy if I slow my stroke down too much. But, I am a quick sketcher so I think it has served me well.
Number 4, can opener; Number 5, uncovered foot and Number 6, something you drink.
Number 7, something from my purse and Number 8, makeup item.
Hope your weekend went well. So far, so good here.
I am a painter working in pastels, with some oils, and acrylics. I sketch in pen and ink. As an artist my original paintings are influenced from living in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, Bolivia, Peru and Chile, and travels throughout much of Canada and forty-nine of our fifty States. This is my spot for posting paintings and sketches, to muse mostly about art and a little about golf and UT Baseball.

- I Grew up in a small town , Magdalena, New Mexico. I enjoy art and the pleasure other people get from my work. I always donate some of my sales and art to charities, especially for children. That started in Bolivia with Para los Niños. (Link on sidebar) "I cannot pretend to feel impartial about colors. I rejoice with the brilliant ones and am genuinely sorry for the poor browns." -- Winston Churchill

You have such great drawing skills Jo. I have been drawing more lately, I know I should but I'm bad, lol. Love playing in my paints more.
Hi Barbara, yes regular sketching should be a habit, it is more like homework for me. I do much better by keeping in the Scavenger Hunts. Otherwise I slack off. :)
