Ironwork Sketch Plein Air

Gene had PT today so I was going to sketch in a sketchbook.  I had my bag, but had taken my sketchbooks out to post some of the last sketches.  I did have watercolors and pens, etc.  So... I sketched on my iPhone.  I put in about 20 minutes on the sketch.  I thought Gene might finish early as his knee was a little sore.


Number 2 Ironwork - the trash bins/baskets are very heavy duty iron painted green in the outdoor mall.  My background isn't accurate as I didn't feel like putting in the buildings across the street.  Ross and Best Buy and other stores to my left.  AT & T behind me.  Hobby Lobby, Specs, Academy, Lowes and more across the street.  We will soon have a Longhorn Steakhouse and a Texas Roadhouse.  We got a Chipotle, a new Oriental place and a BBQ place there.  Sprouts grocery is coming.  I have never been in one of those.  Sounds interesting.  Bastrop is growing too fast.

It was summer today.  I think the high was 84 or 86 degrees F.  A record for the day.  I did not mind at all.  I do not appreciate cold weather.
