New Hunt, New Post

Scavenger Hunt 521 is up and live. 


The artists on the Hunts are from around the world and we have a good time with our sketches.  Come by and check it out.

Robin, made a statement the other day and Joe decided to use it as his signature with her permission:

“The act of art can be so relaxing after you get over yourself.” - Quoting Robin

Isn't that statement so true?  

I went out to a ranch to sketch today with friend, artist, Joan Bohls.  It was so good to be together and such a gorgeous day.  I'm wearing that word out, but the weather is spectacular!  They have an Air B & B with cabins.  http://www.9eranch.com/  You can see her paintings there, too.

I sketched with Micron Pens and added watercolor.  We worked an hour and a half or so.  Joan made lunch.  Great time!!

About 8.5 x 11 inches in the watercolor sketchbook.

Their place is beautiful!  Did I take any other photos ... of course not.  You can see on the website that they have donkeys, longhorns and much more.  Sigh.....

Jennifer Rose, definitely a nice getaway. It is about 12 miles out of town. Pretty place.
