Someone in Texas Loves You

I haven't sketched this mug in a while.  Jennie gave it to me and I always used it when we traveled.  I've kept it back for trips we haven't taken.  I got it out yesterday when we were thinking about Christmas stuff.  I liked the idea that "Someone in Texas Loves You". 


For Scavenger Hunt 94  https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-94-dec-6-dec-14.6354/

Number 4 or 6, not sure how we numbered, I think the pairs counted as two each.

#6 hand or to do with hand - in the BookFactory sketchbook with a Micron 03.  The cup is a cool gray beige with indigo trip and lettering.  It's harder to draw my right hand as I have to look then pick up the pen and draw from memory.  Always a favorite cup.

Hoping to get some things in the mail today and maybe put lights outside.  We shall see.

R's Rue, thanks. Love my mug. Must be about 15 years old.

I meant to do some Christmas decorating today, but the day got away from me. I need to clean house, too, but maybe tomorrow.

I recognized your thumb.

bag blog, yep we are too much alike. If I didn't have Gene reminding me I wouldn't get anything done. I'm usually still wrapping gifts on Christmas Eve and we open gifts late on Christmas Eve. Sigh... We are having windows washed on the 18th so waiting to put up the tree after they finish.
