Scavenger Hunt Self Portrait

I sketched this morning before we took off to golf and spend the afternoon out and about. It was a great afternoon by the way. We golfed ... our normal ... but it was fun and we ate at the Lazy Lizard. It is called a restaurant cantina. It is at the resort, but reasonably priced drinks and food. Good, too.

The sketches are with my Micron 05 pen in the 7 x 10 inch sketchbook for Scavenger Hunt 141. I usually sketch with a pen and freehand. It is dangerous on a permanent drawing, but these are sketches for practice to tune my eyes and hands to look and draw quickly. I think it helps me.

Number 7, something I've had for over a year that I should have thrown away. A small lotion from a hotel that was in my art bag. It seems to be solidified. There are many things I could have drawn, but this was handy. I'm a pack rat. I am sure I have many art supplies with me that I never use. And clothes at home. Here I bring what I wear or wear what I bring. Hmmmm.


Number 8, Something from the bathroom. I sketched the liquid hand soap and used a challenge to draw it from memory. Number 9, self portrait. I'm not sure I captured my real look or maybe I have changed lately. Ha. My lips look pursed and not relaxed. Wonder why? It also looks blurry. Sorry.
