Folks in CP

I was searching for something different to sketch and looked up and there were a bunch of folks out in the field yakking and picking the blackberries.  I was interested in sketching more people so went to work in the ArtStreet sketchbook with a Micron 03.  I forgot to take a photo.  I didn't sketch all of them.  They seemed to meet there and happened to be friends so stayed for a bit.


For Scvavenger Hunt 67 https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-67-may-2-may-10.5443/

Number 7 moves - the folks picking berries.  As I finished I would have liked to add watercolor for practice, but the paper is for sketching not water.  A little coloring with pencils seemed to finish it off.


Today is Cinco de Mayo, May 5.  Gene's brother, Roger, used to always send us a photo of mayonnaise in a sink to say Happy Cinco de Mayo.  I did a quick sketch in the corner to remember Roger.  He always made us smile and continues to do so in our memories.

Hope you have a great day and weekend.  The Longhorns are in Lawrence, Kansas, to play the Jayhawks.  Preview here with links to the broadcast.  It will be on ESPN+ if you care to watch. First game tonight at 6 p.m. Central
