Leg and Shadow Sketch

It has been so nice on the porch in the mornings.  I usually check my email and work a couple of puzzles like Wurdle.  I wanted to sketch but did not want to look for tools so just sketched on the iPad with the Apple pencil.  It changes the routine and is probably good for my brain.  I try to sketch like I do with ink so I use as few "undo" commands as possible.

My numbers are probably off but at least I sketched and tried to keep my fingers in touch with my brain.

Number 8, leg of inanimate object - the leg of the slider/swing on the porch.


Number 9, unusual shadow.  I just noticed this shadow in the guest shower a couple of days ago.  The bar makes sort of a loop shadow.  The shower curtain is usually closed so maybe that is why I hadn't seen it.  Kinda weird.


The photo shows the shadow and a reflection of the shadow on the right wall.  I was farther left and different angle and didn't see that.  Hmm.  Very interesting.

These are for Scavenger Hunt From Life 23.

That shadow is a bit strange... It helps to have the iPad and the Apple pencil nearby.

Interesting shadow was a good prompt. Your bathroom shadow is interesting too. Who'd a thunk it?

I play wordle or some sort of game like it.

Joan, you are right. Always need some drawing tool nearby.

bag blog, yes, shadow was a good prompt. Don't know why I hadn't seen that "loop" before. The word games have me bogged down. Too many words and chances to get them wrong. We play about 5 different ones a day. One in Spanish that I seem to have to guess on most of the words. Ha.

Jo as always such fun to see your different subjects you choose. Shadows in the Bathroom really are interesting. Hope you are having a good day. Hugs!

Hi Debbie, thank you. Sketching makes you look at things better or with more curiosity.
