One of my favorite sketch artists, or artist who sketches, has joined the blogging world. I met Richard Rudnicki in Nova Scotia 2003. He sketches daily and posts his sketch of the week. He sketches something from the day before, from memory. He is a great artist and I had such a good time being invited to one of his plein air painting days and joining in on Paint the Town in Annapolis Royal. (Scroll down past the Bee Caves Paint Out) Stop by his blog and check out his web page, too.
Marie-Dom is another of the sketch artists from the United Kingdom, that I enjoy chatting with and she does beautiful work. She employs watercolor and colored pencils in her sketches. Just lovely. We have Peru in common as she lived there for a time as well. You may have seen her comments at times here on my blog. Check out her page, I'm making a link in my links, below.
This evening I sketched my pot people for the Scavenger Hunt. I promised to do the pot dog as another artist, Nitsa, Anita Davies, in the United Kingdom, had sketched a pot man that her mother gave her. She is such a good artist as well, here is a link to one of her blogs to see her pot man and you can discover more from there. My pot man and dog came from our friend, Sue in Michigan. The lady pots are cement pots from Bolivia.
This sketch is #11 Something decorative, my last for this Hunt. It was done with a Micron 05 and some Derwent watercolor pencils, dry, in my generic sketchbook. About half an hour. Susan and Karen noticed when they were visiting that Gene had arranged the people around the pots and the doggie perched up on a rock. All gathered around the big pot from Mexico. :)
Baseball was not good. Oklahoma won 5-3. Bummer. Check the story on the official page and on Joanna's page.
This is a pitch to Travis with Nick on first, you can see the ball on the way.
Nick sliding back with a toss from the pitcher. Looks like the ball in the glove. He was safe. :)
One of the last outs, Randy fielded the ball and tossed to Chance for the out.
I am an artist that paints in pastels, with some oils, and acrylics. I sketch in pen and ink. As an artist my original paintings are influenced from living in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, Bolivia, Peru and Chile, and travels throughout much of Canada and all our fifty States. This is my spot for posting paintings and sketches, to muse mostly about art, life and a little about UT Baseball.
