Plein Air Sketch

 Outside finally to sketch at PT.  Items on the Hunt list were car and entrance.  Easy to find there.

I sketched in front of the PT place.  Sat on a brick pillar that holds the roofs up.  It was really nice out.  There were many more cars but with artists license, I left them out.  

Number 4 car - a Chevrolet black pickup.  The big letters were decorated or painted nicely.  The "CHEV" were navy blue with white stars and the "ROLET" were red and white stripes like the flag.  Fun to see.

Number 5 entrance - across at Ross

Back inside I noticed a small balloon stuck under a bulletin board.  That fit for yellow.

Number 6 yellow - about an eight inch yellow balloon.

Both in the travel sketchbook with a Micron 03 pen.

Last week one of the clients, an elderly man (elderly like us) asked me if he could give me a cross.  He makes them from a 2 x 4 piece of lumber.  I thought that was very nice and maybe a good sign for Gene and I.  The cross is about 2 inches tall and close to half an inch thick.  Not varnished.

I'm happy to have that in my purse now.
