Sketches for Scavenger Hunt 253 done in the same old brown paper sketchbook with a Prismacolor Premier 01 pen/marker.
Number 1 - from outside the house, Number 2 - from inside the house.
Number 3, something from the entry or hall.
Number 4, something from the living or family room and Number 5, someone you live with.
Number 6, from the kitchen and Number 7, something with legs.
Number 8, gift - a new glass thermal cup, gift from Joanna, thank you! Number 9, sweet treat - some pineapple chunks.
I have painted a couple of paintings and will post about that soon! I expect that to be a bit more interesting. Off to work on insurance stuff, yuck!
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.

About Me
- Jo Castillo
- Bastrop, Texas, United States
- 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

Jo, these sketches are great! You are such an inspiration - I look at your sketches, pull out my sketchbook, leave it on the table for a day or two and put it back untouched! I do use the computer to compose and check values before starting a painting - but not the same. I'm missing out here!
Hi Rosemary, sketching is good for me. As I have said so many times, it is my homework! I do think I need to pay more attention many times, but at least I put pen to paper. Looking forward to seeing some sketches from you. (Evil grin)
