A quick post just for the records. One of the songs on the list was Yesterday and you/we were to sketch something from memory from yesterday. The attempt to portray Gene on his trike falls far from the mark. It neither looks like him or his trike. Also he is traveling downhill which I rarely see. It is flat around our house.

Number 3, yesterday- something from your memory from yesterday.
One rule of the Hunts is to sketch from life. This may illustrate the reason for doing that. On the other hand, trying to remember what we saw may help in sketching and painting as the artist looks and then looks away to make the marks.
There are fewer and fewer readers on blogs. Other social media is taking over. Oh well, this journal is still my record of life and my favorite social media. At this point it is still under my control!!
I am an artist that paints in pastels, with some oils, and acrylics. I sketch in pen and ink. As an artist my original paintings are influenced from living in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, Bolivia, Peru and Chile, and travels throughout much of Canada and all our fifty States. This is my spot for posting paintings and sketches, to muse mostly about art, life and a little about UT Baseball.
