Sketching What you Like

 Gene rode his trike today so I sat out on the porch and sketched. I also listened to a podcast.   I held the big book on my lap, not the easiest way to sketch in it.  I used the Micron 02 for my sketching tool.  Items for the Hunt included listen and something I like to see.  These fit right in my sketching plan.

For Scavenger Hunt 665  https://www.wetcanvas.com/forums/topic/scavenger-hunt-665-jan-26-feb-3/

Number 4 listen - podcast
Number 5 something I like to see - backyard

I listen to several art podcasts.  Stefan Baumann used to be on PBS in painting in the National Parks.  He is a good instructor.  The podcast I was listening to is one where he is coaching a student so pretty specific to their problems.  Interesting none the less.  I like Eric Rhoads podcasts about plein air painting.  He interviews other artists most of the time.  I listen to to the Art Biz Podcast with various artists mostly business of course so not as interesting now that I'm not painting as much.  Good advice usually.

The sunrise this morning.  It is another beautiful day. 

 

I follow the Lines and Colors blog and like this group of paintings by this artist that was reviewed.  Zufar Bikbov

Jesse and several friends are really in to listening to podcasts. I haven't listened to many unless I am with Jesse. I think that is where she gets a lot of her liberal ideas :)

Bag Blog, that made us laugh. I feel the same way. Someone you would like is Victor Davis Hanson, The Classisist. He is a calm voice and has some sense. His is with the Hoover Institution https://www.hoover.org/publications/classicist
