Ned, I like the anchor. We have a few like that around. I'll have to get over to one of them. Glad you had enough energy to take a short walk. Fletch, thanks for the info about the initials on the hat. Jo, Gene looks comfortable with his computer out on the porch. Nice sketch of the trees that...

Fletch, gelli printing is just too complicated to explain. lol Jo, I didn't think of flags flying. Hmmm... I like that you added color just to the geranium flowers.

Jo, thanks for the new list...I see some new, different items to look for. Fletch, love the sketch of the cap with the anchor and lettering. The cap looks so pristine. Do you wear this one at all or is it a keeper? What does MCPO stand for?

Jo, wish you could have snuck in a few sketches...maybe next time. Ai, I like your "used for art" materials. Good sketch of the backpack and that bottle with your non-dominant hand. You make it look so easy. lol Fletch, good thinking for "flies." I almost did the same thing, but never got...

Fletch, good try! It gets easier with practice. ;) Ai, thanks for so many sketches for the hunt. Ned, glad to hear you're on the mend. You were missed!

Jo, you all have been busy with company...nice to see everyone I'm sure. Fletch, I looked for the winners and couldn't find them. Thanks for the link. Sometimes I like paintings that aren't winners and that's why I use to buy the catalogs. I would have a hard time picking award winners. I like...

Ai, thanks. Non-dominant hand sketches take a lot of concentration on my part. Do you feel that way too? Fletch, thanks so much. The tree was a lot looser than I usually paint. Thanks for noticing. Here's a very short review of the AWS show. The American Watercolor Society Show was great...

16 - item for my health (blood pressure cuff) - ink (non-dominant hand) 17 - item for cooking (Kosher salt) (continuous line) 18 - item for cleaning (continuous line)

Ai, thanks so much for your comments. Nice still life of the fruit...good color and highlights. Your non-dominant hand sketches are really good. They look like regular sketches. Good job!

Robin, I like your travel bling...nice memory of Israel. Glad you take your keys when you leave home. I like the room with the display case...what are my choices?? I like the position of the figures transfixed by the video game. Thanks for your comment. I took a trip into the city today by...

Bongo, isn't it great how Ai is constantly taking us on a tour of Thailand? 9 - skyscape - direct watercolors 10 - brightly colored - direct watercolor 11 - vehicle - ink

Fletch, thanks. Yes, I zoomed in to do the text on the pen. Doing text is always hard for me, and I am afraid to screw up the zooming. lol I don't use Procreate often enough to learn how to do things properly. I know there are shortcuts to doing things but I haven't learned them yet.

Fletch, thanks for posting the comments from the last hunt. I'm picturing you trying to sketch by the pond and avoid the gator. lol Our star magnolias are pretty much in full bloom, but the magnolia I sketched is just starting to bloom in most places here. Those are my favorite. Nice shading on...

Jo, thanks. I love when there is so much in bloom like right now. Unfortunately we've had a fair amount of wet, rainy days so I'm not getting to sketch the blooms as much as I want. Ai, thanks for the information about what you were eating. It looks so pretty on the plate and has such...

Jo, thanks. I like the landscape with the gate open...definitely more welcoming! I wonder where the cows went... The flowering tree is a magnolia. I figured I'd better go sketch it before all the blossoms fall off in the rain. Ai, thank you. Nice sketch of the glass and the straw. What is on...
