Sketches for Hunt #116

I finished a couple of sketches last night for Scavenger Hunt 116. I sketched with Micron pens, mostly the 05 in dark blue and an 005 for the green. These are in the regular sketchbook about 10 minutes for the tea and 30 or so for the houses. I sketch freehand with pen and ink usually. You can put "sketches" in the search box in the upper left corner to find out more about my sketches. There are many in this blog!

Number 10, tea - you may be able to tell it isn't open. I have a couple of HEB green tea bags left to finish. These new ones are decaffeinated which is good for me. I don't drink much tea, but like regular tea with milk. This and Jasmine tea I like straight.



Number 11, home sweet home - I sketched part of my house/home collection on the kitchen wall. I started this collection with the three in the middle. I got them in Buenos Aires back in the 70s I imagine. We added with something from most South American countries. Now I have added Mexico, Canada and the U.S. Very colorful collection.

Jo, I have regular tea with milk every afternoon...even when it's a thousand degrees outside. :D

Good to see you are keeping busy with the sketches!

Hi Rose, I guess you must have some British or Irish blood, eh? I have kept sketching and just commented that I had fun sketching. Wow, a surprise, it has always been a chore. :) The Hunts have changed my outlook.
