Sketch and Zentangle

Sometimes sketching requires too much brain work.  I resort to doodles or zentangles as they are called now.  Less thought required.


For the Scavenger Hunt I did a quick sketch in the ArtStreet sketchbook with a Micron 02 pen while using my footstool for a table.  The vacuum had not been put away after the family left calling to be sketched.  I started in the middle top of the area I had and ran out of room at the bottom of the page.  The main part of the cleaner had to be shortened to fit the page.  Poor planning.

Number 4 vacuum - the vacuum is rarely used.  We were vacuuming up broken glass.

For Scavenger Hunt from Life 51

I wanted to do something while watching TV but no more sketching.  Doodle it was.....


 We had leftovers.  So good.  I need to make some more tortillas.  I packaged some of the cookies for David and our friend Kathy.  They miss the biscochitos so much.

Have a good rest of the week.  It is warmer here and will be warm for New Years Eve.


Here is a fun link to read about biscochitos and posole in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

I love a good mindless zentangle.

bag blog, thanks. I like doodling when listening to a book or baseball. Don't do it as much as I like.
