Sketches for Hunt 128 and photos.

I sketched last night for Scavenger Hunt 128. For those of you new to my blog, I usually sketch with a pen, freehand. You can search for "why I sketch" in the search box upper left and read more about it.


Number 4, bridge. My lower bridge looking in a mirror. Some artists sketched road bridges and electrical bridges, so far no other teeth. Ha. Sketched with a Micron 05 pen on April 22, about 20 minutes for both sketches. Joanna won't like this one.


Number 5, outside of your wallet.



You may remember in the photos of the flowers yesterday, that I noticed a small piece of metal with wire on it. Today at the golf course I looked for it. It took a while to find it as the flowers had wilted, but I did.



As you see by the small tee, the item was not very large. It also turned out to be a twig with some vines or roots on it. Hmmmm. No mysterious piece of metal at all. Maybe it is a fairy tether of some sort. Hmmm.

My blog link for this post because I mentioned fairies, Leslie D'Allesandro Hawes, the fairy lady. When Leslie was in Bastrop and had her work at the Gallery she sold many of her fairy colored pencil drawings. People would come in and ask for the "fairy lady". She is a wonderful colored pencil artist. Have a look at her art blog, you will not be disappointed. She, too, is very sharing with her information, skill and knowledge.


Note: I hope all my blogging friends will excuse me, I have not had time to be commenting, even when I get a few minutes to look at your blogs. I am still a fan and will catch up soon. :) Don't give up on me. :)

A fairy tether? Ha.

Have to say that's the most original response to a draw a bridge prompt I've ever seen. Really caught my eye!

Joanna, I thought you and Leslie would like that. :)

Nancy, that is part of the fun of the Scavenger Hunts to see how many different interpretations we get from the items. Thanks.

Jo: Why you found my golf shoe cleat cleaner. I must have dropped it when I visited. You have the spring to attach to the bag and the pick to get the grass off you shoes.

Jo Castillo said...

Hi fishing guy, Oops! I didn't bring it home. Drat!! Guess you have to get a new cleat cleaner. :)

If you went back to look for it (the fairy tether, cleat cleaner ;) )again, and found it again, would you bring it home with you this time? :)
Thanks Jo, for the great link and mention.
I have always been happier being called "The Fairy Lady", rather than "The Dragon Lady".

Hi Leslie, I will but we have had wind up a storm. We shall see. They probably have mowed since then, too. Sorry, I didn't think about the fairy thing until I was posting. It would be perfect for your little collection, huh? I never though about "Dragon Lady" either. Hmmmmm.
