Happy Veterans Day, Thank you, Vets!

 Happy Veterans Day!

 

The birthday of the Marines is so quickly followed by Veterans Day.  Thanks to our veterans for their service and hope they have a great weekend!!

Here is a link to some of my previous Veterans Day posts:

I sketched yesterday on the porch as we are supposed to have cool weather starting tonight.  I'm not ready... I am hoping to go plein air painting tomorrow in Smithville.  We will check out Veterans Day in Bastrop, too.

Number 4 plastic - container
Number 5 wood - toothpicks with the challenge of in my hand.

The other little sketches are from photos so don't count for the Hunt.  Just doodling.

Hi Jo - your just doodling looks pretty good and the sketch of the hand is wonderful as well. Hats off to our Veterans. Hope your day is a grand one. Hugs!

I didn't get out to sketch anything for Veterans Day. The forecast was for rain...and heavy rain by the afternoon and into tomorrow morning. Of course we've barely had any rain so far. Anyway I scooted out to get groceries this morning and then spent the day alternating between my house commission (which needs to be finished by Thanksgiving because the client is picking it up) and the book I am reading. I don't usually paint for more than an hour or so. I do one area and then take a break. Hope you get to go plein air painting tomorrow! Hope I do too!

Thanks, Joan. We didn’t get to any public events but we did talk by phone to family and friends that are vets. Good weekend. Hope your commission goes smoothly. Joanna brought my new computer and it is slowly transferring all my junk. I’d forgotten that it takes a long time.
