Cards and Label

I didn't post yesterday.  I was going to wait, give you Sunday off and post yesterday's and today's sketch together.  I may not sketch today, we have doctors and physical therapy.  Doctors offices don't offer many different things and everyone will be wearing a mask and I am not sketching masks.  I get claustrophobia and cannot relax.  Anyway, better get this off, I may not get anything done today.

We've been playing lots of wordle type games?  Are you addicted?  I think it is killing my gray cells instead of getting them going.

Yesterday I sketched at the table in the dining area in the regular paper 9 x 12 inch sketchbook with the Sharpie pen.

For Scavenger Hunt from Life 18.

I'm not sure on the number of the sketches.
Number 5 and 6, back and front of some playing cards
 


Number 7, product label - almond butter,  I was disappointed in the texture and flavor.  The oil separates like homemade peanut butter.  Mild taste, even butter has a more agreeable taste to me.

 I just noticed that I did not put the suit on the queen.  It is a queen of spades.

Good thing you refuse to draw masks or anything which is related to this dystopian.
I find it soo derpessing all those people who are putting their commons sense aside to have a safe feeling while it doesn't help anything.

Love the sketches tho, ... you guys are so diciplined to draw each day, I almost feel guilty, ... but some days you really have to prepare boards or trips and frame some work.

Take care,

Hope the Physical went well.

René, my feeling too on the masks and crazy things that have depressed us and cost so much in lost time....
Yes, I feel guilty if I don't sketch, we've been at the Hunts since 2006. I haven't painted much lately but it does take time with framing, preparing and showing. You stay busy and paint almost every day.
Physical therapy is going good for Gene and we got his cataract surgery scheduled! Yay!

Debbie, I thought I had answered your comment. Maybe I put it on someone other post or not! My friend, Joe on line, suggests another brand for the almond butter, MaraNatha. I think I won't waste my money, time, my calories and continue with my peanut butter. Smiling.

Jennifer Rose, stick with the apple butter! Yummy for sure. I tried almond crackers, too. For some reason the almond flavor isn't enough to spark my flavor buds.
