As usual, sketched on the porch. I put my models on the arm of the wooden glider and sat there. While sketching we listened to the birds and watched the people walking. Not too many folks today for some reason. Person(s) is on the list, so I was hoping to see more.
Number 4 ceramic - plate
Number 5 wood - arm of glider
Sketched on the bottom of the page from the last sketch in the Fixsmith 9 x 12 inch sketchbook with a Micron 02 and colored pencil.
I do not enjoy coloring with colored pencil. There should be at least two more layers of color to get close to the colors of the items. It takes time to do that. My painting buddy, Regina Burchett, says coloring is therapeutic. Not in my world, it makes me crazy. I prefer the old pastels.
I had avocado on rice cake. An attempt to be like avocado toast. The avocado was not nearly ripe enough so I had hard slices to chew on! It was still good but not great. If it had been ripe I would have had a hard time finishing the sketch before eating the snack.

Looks like a tasty treat...if the avocado is ripe. I don't like colored pencils either. Too much work to get the colors true.
ReplyDeleteAwww, thanks, (not-so-anonymous) Joanna.
ReplyDeleteJoan, thank you. The avocado was a tad green but I like them so much. True on the colored pencils.
