Sketches and Photos of Pretty Morning

As usual .. maybe I should not say that and just write .. you all know I am a procrastinator so you don't expect "stuff" on time.  So, I will just begin....

I sketched at the dentists office, only mentioned because that is where I was.  Nothing bad, small filling.  Anyway, I sketched in the travel sketchbook with a Micron 05 or 01.  

Remember that the items come from names of songs.  The list is on the Scavenger Hunt 513.


Number 7, Pick a Number - one couch or 9 magazine piles in a rack.

Then I waited for Gene at the chiropractors office and sketched in the same book.


Number 4, Under the Bridge
Number 6 or 9, Our House - substituting some roofs near where I was sitting, more interesting than the roof on our house, which is plain.
Number 7, Larger Than Life - pride and love of flag and country

Number 5, Red, Red Wine - from the state of Washington, Thanks, Kathy and Dan.
Number 6, Robots - Gene's little Veto with his ball.
These two sketched in the big book with a Sharpie, brush pens from Prismacolor and a Micron 01.  The numbers are wrong someplace.  I have sketched 9 items so far for the Hunt.  Hmmm.

A beautiful morning today, I haven't been getting up early enough for the pretty colors.  A fisherman and his pickup taking advantage of the day.  It was a lovely 67 degrees.  We sat on the porch and now Gene is going for a trike ride.  Maybe I will walk....

Jo, it's hard to think of you as a procrastinator; you put most of us to shame with your frequent sketching and posts. These are very clever, as your hung sketches often are. In scrolling back, I was especially taken with your "animal" sketch of Poopsie--great job.

You're moving through the list a lot faster than I am. Nice sketches...hope you walked!

Mary, thanks. It is always fun to hear from you. My sketches are often like homework and just keep me going when I'm in a funk for painting.

Joan, you do many things so I should be faster doing only sketching. I didn't walk but did my weights. More interesting to me. Need to do both though.

That's a lot of sketches. The robo dog is so funny.

Bag Blog, Gene has really enjoyed his dog. When we checked into hotels he would tell them he had a dog but wasn't paying and then bring in Veto! It is darned cute.

I seem to sketch about 10 every Hunt, so about one a day. Homework!
