Marks and Happy Treat Sketches

Well, I got a couple of sketches done for the new Hunt.  I sketched at Gene's  PT with a Sharpie fine line marker in the Canson travel sketchbook, small.

For Scavenger Hunt from Life 171  https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-171-sep-23-oct-05.8279/

 

Number 1, use to make mark - Sharpie marker and pens on the counter

Today I sketched on the porch waiting for the hummers to come back after the feeders were empty and then refilled.  I think the migration is getting near the end.  They are so much fun to watch.

Number 2, happy treat - Gene's apple pie.  Sketched in the Conda Sketchpad with a Micron 02.  You can see the pen makes finer and lighter marks than the marker.

Good to see you getting some sketching done out on the porch. Hope the temps are cooling off a bit.
