2Hunts, 4 sketches

I sketched during a movie and whiled away the evening. For Scavenger Hunt 124 which ends today I did a couple and some for the new Hunt 125. They were all done in the small sketchbook with a Pilot regular ball point pen.

For Hunt 124, Number 8, H - horse, a bronze sculpture by our friend Charlie Force that I have sketched before. About 10 minutes.

Number 9, I - instep. About 5 minutes.

For Hunt 125, Number 1, TV - about 8 minutes.

Number 2, computer - about 15 minutes.

To find out more about my sketches, just put sketches in the search box at the top left of my blog and you will get more than you think. :) I actually started this blog so that I could post sketches and join the Scavenger Hunts on wetcanvas.com. It has been good for me. Sketching is one of the few things that I am dedicated to. Posting keeps me sketching and also painting.

No painting today, we worked on finances and Income Tax. Sigh......

I love the immediacy and directness of your sketches. Keep it up.... I may actually get out my sketchbook.... and might even put something in it!

Thanks Teresa, like I say, I have to work at it. It is not a "natural" habit. My friend, Sue, sketches all the time, in line, in the car. She sketches vs using a camera.
