Alphabetical Hunting 580

Joe put up the new Scavenger Hunt with an alphabetical list and challenge to do them in order.  I made a start in the big book with the Pilot fountain pen.

Scavenger Hunt 580
http://www.wetcanvas.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1463237

Numbers 1 - 7  Almond, bonbon, carrot, dandelion, egg, feather, glass
Two challenges, to sketch them in order and to group at least 3 in a still life.

I added a pistachio and a pecan with the almond.  Substituted a Werthers for bonbon and the lettuce for carrot.  We only had lettuce and tomatoes or canned/frozen veggies.  Pretty normal here.  I don't think we ever have bonbons unless someone gives us a gift.

The little blue bonnet is one of the first blue bonnets to bloom in our little patch.  I didn't remember glass was on the list so was happy to see it in my grouping and added the feathers to keep the order.


 George Ensle  http://georgeensle.com/  picking on his metal guitar.  He jokes that "here comes the hard metal songs"

Greg Whitfield http://gregwhitfield.net/  playing his guitar.  They are both such fine players.  I love it when the performers can play more than chords when they sing.  These two are super at that.

These photos are from Saturday night at Neighbor's in Bastrop.  http://www.neighborstx.com/
We had a really good time.  Some British video bloggers that were in Austin for South by Southwest SXSW were there having a good time adding to the  pace which was lively and fun.  A few snippets of music on my Instagram  https://www.instagram.com/jocastart1/

Bag Blog, you made me laugh! Thanks.

hmuxo, thank you. I have sketched musicians a few times, not easy. I should try these photos for practice, thanks for the idea.

You got quite a few done. Once again I'm procrastinating and now my favorite show, "This Is Us", is starting. lol

Joan, sorry. Another of your comments I read and did not publish. I wonder why sometimes I sketch so much and other times I procrastinate, too. I like that program, too ... weepy TV!
