Ai, great sketch of the view from your hotel room. You captured the distance well. I always love staying at the beach and like getting up to see the sunrise and walk on the beach. I haven't done that in too long...sigh!

Put me down for #192: Jun 13 - Jun 25.

Ai, thanks. I was so excited to see the magnolia tree was finally blooming. I understand the problem with too much time on FB. I need to cut back too. Ned, I make a little list from each hunt of the things I can look for outdoors and keep it in the car. Then I end up with a stack of them in the...

Fletch, thanks so much for your comments. I like your ink sketches of the bowls. I don't usually sketch on my hunt printout, but by the time the hunt is finished I have several notes written on the paper so I have to keep it a while before I transfer the notes somewhere else. This list already...

Ai, thanks! Looks like you are enjoying your trip. I love the bunny figurines. They look so sweet posed next to the delicate coffee pot and cup. You are finding such great things there to sketch. I went to the Bayard Cutting Arboretum this morning. It is close enough that I can take a ride over...

Fletch, your foot bath sketch made me smile. I love to have my feet pampered so it gives me a little joy to see that. I can live vicariously through your sketch since I'm not due for a pedi yet. lol Hope you and Sharon had a nice Easter. Ai, thanks. I used artistic license and left out about a...

Jo, thanks for understanding. lol Ai, fun sea kites. I've never tried anything like that, but it is definitely fun to watch. Happy Easter to all of you who are celebrating!!!🐰 The NYC Urban Sketchers went to DUMBO (down under the Manhattan Bridge) and their carousel to sketch. It was packed...

Ai, thanks for the new list! How fun that you and Iris are having your own mini vacation. Have fun!! I like the sketch of the gramophone from the lobby...nice chair too with the candle holders nearby. The sketch of the girl in the water is great. I hope she and her friend have a good time...

Joe, nice sketch of the fruit in the box. I am sure you will do well with the internship at the hospital. You've been doing so well. All the best. Ned, thanks for hosting.

Joe, Happy Easter! It is good to see you and Eeyore again. I hope your studies have been going well. Ai, nice capture of one of the passengers.

Ai, thanks for both comments. Jo, many thanks. I needed a little time by the water. I'm still waiting for Spring weather to arrive. lol It seems to show up one day and then be gone again. What color are your hydrants usually? Is is red under all that rust? I had errands to run up near the mall...

Ai, thanks so much. Ned, thanks. I figured I'd start at the top and see how much fit on the page. I really needed a double page spread which I didn't have with me. Jo, thanks for the comments. Wow, you did quite a few sketches. I like the geranium in the pot...the lettering on it adds a fun...
