Hunting Relaxation on #483

Sketching can be relaxing but the post title comes from the item on the list:  used to relax.  Sketches were done in the great big book with the sepia colored Micron.   I had it in front of the computer so was sitting directly in front of it.  I will use that as an excuse for the slant of the floor.

For Scavenger Hunt 483 http://www.wetcanvas.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1420862

Number 10, on the floor - rolled up rugs, the ceiling is having water damage repair.  It has needed it for some time and finally we are getting it done.
Number 11, used for relaxation - the iTunes on my iMac.  I can listen to thousands of songs from my recorded CDs.  I listen on shuffle mode and have latin, country, folk, classical, jazz, easy listening, and all playing at random.  Love it!  I get tired of listening to one genre.  Country music may be my favorite, but I like it all -- mixed up.

I don't have any sage advice today.  If you have extra time and haven't ever looked at my short videos, check out the tab above for Demos and Videos.  You can hear some of my sage advice there!

Good sketches. I don't use my iTunes for some reason. I listen to music constantly in the car and we listen to music through dinner...and sometimes if I'm painting indoors.

Joan, I don't use my music nearly as much as I used to. We rely more on TV and play the music there. I like the mix though. I don't understand why there isn't a mix channel on Sirius for the car. I get tired of one kind of music for a long time. I still have some mix CD's that I need to put back in the car. Ha.

I got my videos in the mail. Now I need to sit down and watch them. I'm looking forward to them!
