Another Hunt Ending Sketches

The Hunts go by faster than ever.  I've learned that is the natural progression of things.  When you are young a few years are half your life.  When you are old a few years seems like a day.  From that you can assume that I am old as time is passing by way too quick.

Gene rode his trike yesterday.  He forgot something and I waited for him to come back by the house.  I sat on a folding chair under a tree and sketched across the road.  The mornings are super nice at the moment.  That calls for plein air don't you know.

These sketches today are in the BookFactory sketchbook with a Micron 03 pen.


For Scavenger Hunt From Life 86  https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-86-oct-1-oct-9.6080/

Number 8 trees or plants - these are trees across the street.  Not sure what type the one that is the most dead is.  The other is Juniper or Cedar that is a bit weird in shape for that species.  They are usually more round and full.

Number 9 vehicle - neighbors cars across the street.  No idea what models.  They all look the same now.

Number 10 trees or plants - this is Chinaberry I think.  Grows like crazy and doesn't do much for shade, just makes messes.

Number 11 edible - Some new rice cakes with quinoa and chia.  Haven't tried them yet.  They should be healthier than plain rice cakes.  Bad perspective, should be a tall rectangle cube shape.

And then.....

Inktober Day 9 - bounce.  My little boy on a trampoline looks like an old man.  Sigh.....

It is great that you are keeping up with Inktober. Most of my sketches here are watercolors and ink. It is jut too much to have to post to another place from here.
