Tree Sketch Watercolor

I sketched yesterday on my day out.  I wasn't up to par so picked up lunch and found shade at the park to sketch and eat.  I didn't wan't to park on the street someplace and eat.  My feet were sore and I didn't want to walk to a bench or table.  My feet are better after PT.  My therapist gave me some stretches for my flat feet and they are better tonight.

For Scavenger Hunt from Life 185 https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-185-mar-10-mar-22.8801/

I sketched in the Ohuhu Mix Media sketchbook with an Ohuhu pen 0.05 and watercolors.

Number 2 tree or shrub - There were several trees a few in the background were oaks that had leaves and the new spring leaves on the trees nearby.  Evidently Crepe Myrtles from the shapes.  Big ones though.  The bench is right by the trash can.  I hate that when I eat at a bench or the tables.  Lots of flies.  But, I guess if they put the cans far away, people won't put their trash in the bins.  So the people eating lose.

It was a pretty day up to about 67º F.  We have had a few crazy days.  96º or so on Sunday, 40s on Monday and 67º yesterday.  Today was about 74º.  I had the door open for a while.

Gene talked to a couple of old buddies today.  That is always so good for him.  He can't remember but they fill him in.  Good guys.

Well, hopefully spring is here.  From the forecast we may have skipped directly to summer.
