New Hunt - Old Hand

The new Scavenger Hunt has "hand in different positions" for one of the items.  You know I would sketch this one.  My old hands are always available as models.

Number 1 hand in different positions - in the Conda Sketchpad with a Micron 03


Baseball note:

The Horns won over the Georgia Bulldogs who are #3 in the country yesterday.  Hopefully they will win again today and have the sweep.  Hook 'em Horns!

Cabrito on the Menu, but not Goat

Joanna picked up the Cabrito for our last get together.  We didn't need goat but we did need tequila.  We had never seen this brand.  I just had to sketch the bottle.  Comes in a bottle was on the list for Hunt 154.  Yay!

Number 5 comes in a bottle - Cabrito tequila.  It was/is pretty good for margaritas.  Fun for a sketch in the Conda Sketchpad with a Micron 03 and a red Micron 005.  I like doing glass in pastel, much easier to get a glass feeling.  This is pretty satisfactory for ink.

The Longhorns won the first of the three game series against the Georgia Bulldogs!,  Good start to the weekend!

The game Saturday, tomorrow, will be at 2:00 p.m. so we can watch and then go to The Bugle Boy to see and listen to our friend and neighbor, Libby Koch. Libby is great.  If you get a chance you can go to LaGrange or you can stream for a small charge. The non-profit will happily take larger donations.  :-)  A great way to keep live music in the area.  You might enjoy some of the other shows on most Friday and Saturday nights.

Quick Sketch Desk Accessory

A quick sketch before we run off to physical therapy.  Still effortless.

Number 4 desk accessory - a couple of small shelves, courtesy of Larry, hoping to de-clutter my desk.  Seems like just more space for more papers and such.  In the Conda Sketchpad with a Micron 03 at home in my studio.
