Sketching took place today at PT for Gene. I forgot my watercolors and brushes but did remember the sketchbook. It was pretty nice outside but I didn't feel up to the wind and stayed inside.
For Scavenger Hunt from Life 190 https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-190-may-9-22.9023
Number 1 full - a cup full of plastic flowers. At first I thought they were real. I picked them up to change the angle and realized they were silk/plastic, it was so lightweight. the tag on the cup read, "You are the Berry Best". A gift to the receptionist. Fun.
I sketched in the new Ohuhu smaller sketchbook with an Ohuhu .7 pen. I added the watercolor at home.
Mother's Day was nice. Joanna, Jennie and Brandon came out to visit. Joanna brought pizza for all . Crazy, as we all had different pizzas. Jennie and Brandon brought chocolate covered strawberries. Larry was working out of town and of course David and bunch are in Kentucky.
We played a round of Telefunken (a progressive rummy game I learned in Bolivia) and had some mocktail margaritas, by Top Hat in Austin. (very unimpressive, made with kombucha and lots of other stuff) They have caffeine in the tea. Next time I will try making regular margaritas our way and use non alcoholic wine in place of tequila.
Joanna brought another surprise. She gave me a bluebonnet cup which was special on its own. The real surprise is that it was made by Lou and Toby Baggett in Oklahoma. Lou is Bag Blog here in comments and her blog, link in sidebar and you can find them on Instagram and Facebook or whatever it is now. So unexpected! I love it.
