Last Landscape

Well, a teaser of sorts, it is the last sketch and landscape for this Hunt 157.  We were out on the porch almost all day, so did this quick sketch before baseball started.

 

For Scavenger Hunt from Life 157  https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-157-apr-20-apr-28y.7933/

For the Hunt it is the bottom half of the page.  Number 5 landscape in the Conda Sketchpad with a Micron 03.  A little change in style as I sketch that view so often.

"Our" roadrunner went by so quickly that I couldn't actually sketch it.  It had something in its mouth and was really scootin' across the yard.  So from memory and a glimpse.  We have a pair of roadrunners that seem to hang around.  It is hard to get a photo.

The Longhorns won the game 6 -5 over the Aggies.  Yay!  Somehow they are number 1 in the country.  The team seems to have a real team connection.  They have players hurt and someone different seems to step up every game to save the day.  It must be hard as only a handful are from the team last year.  The others have come in from the portal and played at different schools last year.  One player is 17 and came from high school in his senior year to play baseball and football for Texas.  He missed his prom this weekend.  Anyhoo, it has been interesting.   Only watching on TV but still fun.  Hook 'em Horns!
