We were outside on the porch. Going to be in the 80s F today. Snowing in the northeast and mountains today. Yikes! Stay warm and safe all y'all.
For Scavenger Hunt From Life 58 https://creativespark.art/threads/hunt-58-%E2%80%93-feb-19-%E2%80%93-feb-27.5183/
These are in the ArtStreet sketchbook with a Micron 03. Pretty quick freehand sketches.
Number 5 rocks - I don't remember why we have a pile of rocks in the yard. Hmmm.
Number 6 a pump spray - a bottle with vinegar and dish soap for the bugs, especially the wasps. The wasp spray is so messy and not good for you. It takes a few sprays with this, but finally gets the wasps. Gene is allergic to bees and wasps.
Number 7 a water view - toward the westerly pond/lake.
Number 8 found outside - the corner of the shed with a wheelbarrow and some of the trees.
Number 9 found in the medicine cabinet - pills and more pills. We definitely have a cabinet full.
Still working on the APS donation stuff. Here is the donor poster. The prizes are nice. Pastels, paper, Pastelbord, pastel tools, watercolor for under painting and some nice gift certificates. The companies were generous. Hope you support them!
The painting on the flyer is "Too Young to Drive" by Yingying Chen. The other landscape painting is "Garner Park" by Mike Etie. I'll let you know when the paintings go on-line so you can view them and the winners of the competition.
Liz Haywood-Sullivan is judging the show and having a demo the weekend of March 3, you can view info on the website if you want to join the Austin Pastel Society and go to the demo. https://austinpastelsociety.org
The Austin Pastel Society is a great group of sharing and talented artists. Not all live in Austin, myself included.

Amazing art work! It's nice here, but I think we only made it to the mid-sixties...but it's plenty sunny and beautiful today!
Jo, it was good to hear from you via my blog.I love your postings on your blog! Lets talk soon!!
Good layout of the sketches on your page! Nicely done. The flyer for the show looks good. Are you entering something? Ah...a bonus to stop at Trader Joe's!
Laurie, thanks for checking in. We are so close and so far apart. We should talk. Later, Jo
Joan, I did not enter the show. I've been gathering the prizes. I stepped in as the person doing that had a health problem. It's been a bit more work than I bargained for, but nice that I could help and support our group.
Elizabeth, so sorry I didn't answer your post. I missed a few on the 23rd. Hmm. Happy to have this good weather, eh? I wish it would be like today all year! Gene says I would be bored. I wonder.
