Boring Sketches

Boring!  That is what the fans yell when the pitcher keeps throwing to first base trying to hold the runner there.  I felt bored with these sketches.  Couldn't think of anything new.

Also, time flies these days.  I don't know how there are so many interruptions when we don't have anything to do.  I used to stay busy during the available time, now I seem to wait for the time to do things, like eat, take pills or sleep.  Lots of empty time.

I sketched yesterday and today in the BookFactory sketchbook with a Micron 03 and a Pilot ball point pen.  Homework! Again ... boring.


For Scavenger Hunt 113  https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-113-may-3-may-11.6831/

Number 2, tool - a cutting tool
Number 3 - folded a couple of dollar bills

Maybe, just maybe, today I will be more inspired.  Don't hold your breath!

I think it is hard to get too excited about the hunt items since most of them we've sketched several times. Sometimes it helps to look at them in a new way. I always go through the list and write down what items I can possibly find outdoors since the ones indoors bore me too. lol

Joan, thanks for the sympathy. I need to change things up for sure. Happy that you can find outdoor items!! Hugs.

It has been months since I have used my laptop and looked at blogger. Talk about being out of practice. My old brain just doesn't work like it used to. Hang in there. At least you still draw and still blog.

bag blog, hey there! Yep, people in general are not blogging and reading blogs. I use mine mostly for a journal. I never could keep a diary. Happy to hear from you. Hugs.
