Two For One

I was so clever today.  The Scavenger Hunts overlap a day so I thought I would sketch a last item from Hunt 670 that ends today and the first item from Hunt 671 that starts today.  I would put them in one sketch.  I forgot I still have to post the sketch in two places on wet canvas.  Sigh....

I did at least sketch, right?  For Scavenger Hunt 670, number 3, to do with the laundry room -spray for stains.  For Scavenger Hunt 671, number 1, clothing - a shirt folded on the chair.

This is in the big coffee table book done with a Micron 01 ... out on the porch.


It was such a beautiful day that Gene rode his trike and I walked across to the playground at the fire station and sketched at the picnic table.  He met me there and we came back together.

For Scavenger Hunt 671 https://www.wetcanvas.com/forums/topic/scavenger-hunt-671-mar-15-mar-23/#post-1392338

Number 1, landscape - zooming in from across the pond looking East.
Number 2, water - the pond

This is in the watercolor sketchbook, 7 x 10 inches.  A little bit of drawing with the Micron 02.  I've sketched the lakes and trees so many times, I decided to zoom in a little on the house across the way.

Toby rode his bike yesterday. The weather has been warmer, but very windy. I will wait to ride with him when the weather is near perfect. OK usually has two days out of the year where the weather is perfect. I like the little watercolor.

Thanks, Joan. I enjoyed the day so makes sketching more fun.

Bag Blog, ha. I haven’t ridden since we lived in Lubbock in early 80s. Never a perfect day for me. Watercolor is a struggle, I try to paint like oils or acrylic. I need to practice more.
