Back to Black and White

Routine homework, practice or just sketching with the pens in black and white.  Yesterday morning we were on the porch and I sketched there.  This morning I sketched at my desk.  We are having some good much needed rain.  We have been outside on the porch but I came in to use the computer.  

These sketches are for Scavenger Hunt 68

Number 6 tongs - these are metal and red plastic, smaller than normal
Number 7 something sharp - work scissors that Joanna gave Gene.  They will cut just about anything, hard plastic, cardboard boxes, etc.  Handy for recycle products.
These are sketched with a Micron 03


Number 8 art pencils or line making tool - some in my new holder.  The pencils are from a drawing kit so are different values from 2B to 4H.  Handy, but I don't draw with them much.  Sketched with a Pilot ballpoint pen.
