I sketched yesterday and today in the big sketchbook with a Micron 01 pen. I was standing at the counter in the kitchen, on the stool for the outside seat and shoes. The others on the kitchen/dining table. Challenges from this Hunt are to use your non dominant hand and do continuous line drawings. It is enough challenge for me to just sketch!

I have a new addition to my studio. Our friend, T (Thresa) paints and renews old furniture, makes jewelry from odd things like bones, and other fun artsy stuff. She had a chair that is perfect for my studio. I had been looking for a comfy seat for me to sit and contemplate and for a visitor to sit in. Inspiring, too. Pretty nifty find!

The birds were out again this morning. Purple Martins found the house finally. Not sure if it is a good thing, we haven't seen the Eastern Bluebirds since and they are so pretty. The Martins are noisy and protective of their world.
Upside down bomber, ha.
They stay busy in the mornings.
The one on the right has a piece of something to put in the apartment. Not sure if it was a stick or food.
This Ladder Backed Woodpecker has figured out how to turn his head. He used to try eating upside down.

Everything is so green outside. I tried a pastel of my pond view while I was recuperating. The green is a bit overwhelming.
Bag Blog, Happy that you got to paint a bit. I feel that way about green all the time. My friend's, Enid's, secret is to use orange in the trees and Richard McKinley's is to use purple in the shadows. Good luck!
Glad to hear you are recuperating! Hugs.
nice sketches :) I can draw sort of with my left hand, but would never try to do a continuous line drawing with it. they are a PITA enough with my right hand :p
Jennifer, funny! My lefties are pretty sad. The challenges are two separate ones. Good thing!
