It has been a slow week

I think after completing the 75 Sketches in 75 Days challenge, I was just a little burnt out.



Monday I had Jury Duty.  I spent most of the day reading, but we had a good view from the Justice Center of the Pink Palace, which is a historical hotel downtown.  I only managed to capture some of the building.


Last weekend I found a Zebra Longwing in the driveway.  So I saved him/her and spread his wings to dry.  Today I took a photo and began a sketch.


I began a sketch of my beer.  But the bottle was off from the beginning... a well, it still tasted really good.

Oh, I forgot to tell you.  My Artistic License arrived, from Brenda Swenson, for completing the 75 Sketches Challenge.  Thanks Brenda.

All of the above were done with my Namiki Falcon FP SF, Platinum Carbon Black in my Monsieur Sketchbook.

75 in 75 #75



My only view today, the top of my desk (this is only one of my four montiors)

75 in 75 #72 and #73


Well, just two more to go - guess I'll have to find a new challenge.  Of course, November is Art Every Day Month, so I guess that will be the next challenge.

I started the sketch on top late (very late) last night and was just too tired, so you only get part of my desk and just some of the stuff.

75 in 75 #66

I am working through Linda Kemp's book watercolor painting outside the lines

I didn't think that this particular attempt was going to work at first and although I would do a few things differently the next time I'm actually pretty pleased with the results


The paper is Arches 140#.  The paints are Graham Cerulean Blue Deep, Azo Green and Daniel Smith Raw Sienna.
