Scavenger Hunt 618 calls for doorway and sink as a couple of items. I was pretty sure I hadn't sketched the sink in the guest bathroom and doorway so that is where I headed with the big sketchbook and my Lamy pen.

Number 4 door/doorway and Number 5 sink - guest bath . There was a lot of ink on the page showing through from the previous sketch of the tree. I think the Lamy ink sits on the page without soaking through as much. We will see.
I did not do a pencil sketch first. I rarely do that. Sometimes that would pay off, probably a lot in this case. I just don't do it. I get bored to do things over and always think it is only a sketch anyway. Maybe I should take my sketching more seriously. What do you think? What do you do?
Gene framed some paintings this afternoon that the family painted a few years ago in Kentucky in a paint along. Photos to come. We will put them up in the dining room.
It is bright and sunny out but not too warm. We did go for a walk. That is always good.
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.

Hope you had a chair to sit on while you sketched this in your big book. They do get mighty heavy! Nice!!
Jo, thank you so much for all your encouragement and support these last few weeks. I am hoping that the rehab facility will get Jerry stronger, in a more positive frame of mind, and able to get around. It is great to have people like you behind us!
Joan, thanks for the comment and stopping by. Know you are busy, busy. The book does require a chair! Wishing the best for you both. Take care of yourself. Happy to see you sketching. Hugs.
I usually just sketch with a pen, its good practice since you can't erase it :)
Jennifer Rose, exactlly! It is good practice and faster than going over something a second time.
