We usually keep the blinds open slightly during the day facing west as the TV is on that wall. The other day when everyone was coming over Gene pulled up the blinds. There was some terrific light and shadows on the wheelbarrows hanging on the shed. Later Larry said something about the window being so clean he thought it was open. Next morning I think I thought to take a couple of photos of the light. I didn't look at them right away busy with other things.
When I did look at the photos I had to laugh. My iPhone camera had focused on the screen and this is the result.
I later took another photo above the screen but the light is different than I wanted.
Today I sat on the coffee table in that corner and sketched. No shadows as it was cloudy. Maybe I will still paint a pastel of the light. That was the plan all along.
Number 2 has wheel or wheels - the wheelbarrows hanging on the shed
Number 3 rough texture - bark of the trees
These are in the large Canson Mix Media sketchbook with a Micron 03 that doesn't have much ink or nib left. It was actually good for the sketch as I could get varied strength of lines where it skipped.

Tonight the Longhorns play Texas Tech in the Big 12 Baseball Tournament in Irving at the Texas Rangers Stadium. They are the last of 4 games today and supposed to start at 7:30 p.m. I would guess it will start late with the other games in front. At least there won't be weather delays as the roof on the stadium can be closed. Hook 'em Horns!
That screen photo is too funny. :-)
ReplyDeleteI like the sketch.

Not-so-anonymous Joanna, the photo made me laugh. The window was so clear! Sigh. Thanks for the comment. Hugs.
