Joanna gave me some new Pentel Arts Color Pen, Fine Point Color Markers for Christmas. That is a mouthful, eh? Anyway, there are 36 colors so I tried them out in my brown paper sketchbook. Pretty cool. I guess I used about 8 colors. Thanks, Joanna.

Quick Sketches and Sunrise
Just a quick sketch or two. Scavenger Hunt 296 finishes tomorrow and I will be the host of #297. I thought I had better get something done for this one.

Number 1, arm - Gene's arm on the recliner. Number 2, pretty - my new measuring cups. They were a gift from and made by Lea, at Blue Donkey Gallery. Pottery, white with bluebonnets and blue outside. They are pretty and useful. Thanks, Lea.
And the sunrise this morning, about 6:45 or so. I posted it on facebook for Roger and my other sunrise/sunset fans. :) Photos of sunsets, sunrises and rainbows were my mom's favorite subject for her photos.

Glad to see you got some sketches done. I love the story below about your mom's Christmas cactus. It is wonderful how it reached so far and then cycled back to you again.
Wishing you and Gene a Happy New Year! Have a wonderful 2013!
Joan, Thanks! We wish you the best New Year as well. Hope you are safe and cozy.
Nice sketches...beautiful sunrise!
Hey, Joanna! Thanks.
