Sketches for Hunt 220

I managed a few sketches for Scavenger Hunt 220.  Maybe that will jump start me.  I need some pastel time but haven't been doing it!

These sketches are in the regular sketchbook with the old ball point pen, Pilot, that I like.  Freehand and quick.

Number 1, Before - my sketchbook page before sketching.
Number 2, After - my sketchbook page after sketching number 1.
Number 3, Smooth or shiny - My navy blue hard drive is both smooth and shiny!
Of course I did these night before last, so I still haven't been motivated!  Sigh.......

Your sketches are so fresh and lively, Jo--thanks for posting them. And I hear you with that "Sigh", but sketching takes discipline, too, so give yourself a pat on the back for exercising your creative muscles :>).

Those are fun. I like the idea of the Scavenger Hunt.

Jesse, the Hunts are good for me. I feel guilty if I don't do any. Been doing them since the beginning in 2006. It is like homework for me to sketch. Ha.

I was really liking sketch #1. Until I saw sketch #2 which made me think #1 was somewhat lacking. :-) Fun!

Is that a cow from Joisey?
