Sketches of colors

Scavenger Hunt 143 is mostly colors as you might have noticed in the earlier post. Last night I did turquoise and tonight chartreuse, lime, and fuchsia. Not great sketches or colors. I quickly added some colored pencil to my ink drawings, and of course I don't have too many colored pencils. Takes too long to "color" with them. I sketched with a Micron 05 and a regular Pilot ball point pen.

Number 4, turquoise. The sunset from the balcony last night. My sketch does not do justice to the sky. You can see it at the bottom of my previous post. The sky was more turquoise than the photo, too. Number 5, fuchsia, a little plastic pencil sharpener.

Number 6, chartruese. The decoration on the paper plates we have been using. Number 7, lime green. The bottle of Realime.

These are for the record. I did not do real art today in my opinion. I messed with Dreamweaver. I think I am not smart enough to use it and hate to pay for all the things I will never use. I wouldn't use frames and some of the other widgets, etc. It is like buying a Bow-flex machine. I love doing weights, but the machine is for lifting up to 450 pounds or something and I do about 5 - 10. Expensive to just use 5 pound weights. Ah, well. I will give it another day or two. ...... ......
