Sketches Hunt 226, Paintings, Photos

The Longhorns play in the College World Series tonight!  
Hook 'em Horns!!  

The game is game 2 of the CWS, Texas vs Florida, and is on ESPN tonight.  Nice.

I sketched some more on June 14 for Hunt 226.  This hunt ends tomorrow.  I sketched in the brown paper sketchbook with a Faber-Castell PITT F pen.


Number 7, clothespins and Number 8, cup.  Doesn't look like I will finish the 26 items in this Hunt.  Doomed to finish one time in 226 Hunts.  Not good.

I have posted more than once today so scroll down or go to previous post or home.  I'm not sure that "better late than never" is a good adage to go by since I am late more often than not lately in posting.

We have been so busy this week.  I have  been working on website, ads, newsletters, invitations, paintings, and more.  Always have to cook and wash clothes.  Gene does a lot, too, including the shopping.  I dislike going to the grocery store, especially. Thank you, Gene.   He has been framing up my new paintings which is a challenge as I can never make up my mind about frames, glass, etc.  They always look so good all together.  Here is a snap of some of them on the couch.



Ah, and we had to walk some which we do at the golf course.

Pretty clouds and soooooo dry.

How can we get such pretty clouds and no rain?  Can you do a rain dance for us?

Gene got a birdie.

Lookin' good.  Happy Father's Day in advance!
