Sketch, Towel for the Hunt

We have had company so our time has been spent doing "important" things like golf, swimming, eating, and visiting. I did manage another sketch today and a little work on my Chile Store painting. It is about done, I hope to post the progress tomorrow evening.


For Scavenger Hunt 58. This is #2, a folded blanket. I substituted a towel as I was too lazy to go find a blanket or to go sketch in the bedroom. This was interesting to try to get the different shades of color and design in just ink. It is dark and medium blue, with an almost black edge, white strips and some lime green palms. It is with a Micron 005 pen in the NY Sketchbook. It took about an hour with time out for a trip to the plaza in Old Mesilla to hear the jazz and have some wine at the Jazz Happening.

Thanks, Joanna. It took a while, but I was visiting with Roger so the time passed quickly.

Hi Hog Hunting, thanks for a comment, I bet you were surprised to click on hunting and find art! Nice to know about your club. The link doesn't work though.
