Big Book Sketches

I sketched in the huge table top sketchbook with the Micron 01.  I did them quickly and without much thought.  Sometimes I can't get motivated and just draw......

Number 3 branch
Number 4, happy times - balloon from yesterday, Joanna's birthday and Independence Day.  It was a happy time.
Number 5, book cover


We walked this morning around the lake.  "They" (assuming HOA) put some benches around the lake and one picnic table.  Good for sketchers and fishermen.

 We saw a little doe.  She panicked and took off to our left, stopped came back in a dead run and ran around the lake, jumped a fence, over the road, and jumped another fence toward the big Lake Bastrop.  Pretty to see run, but so scared.


Gene tried out one of the benches.  Pretty snazzy!

How nice that they put up benches for you! That's a great idea. I haven't had a chance to do anything for this hunt. I'm hosting the next one and need to get it organized. lol

Those benches look great.

Joan, Thanks, it is a great idea to have benches. I always thought there should be benches like that on golf courses, too.

Joanna, it was a surprise to see them. There are seven scattered all around. Guess they got put up while we were gone.
