Joan -- thanks, I'm going to use some olive oil and breadcrumbs, and brown them in the oven before baking. The apple muffins are pretty good but I'm going to make a couple changes... if I get them really good I can send you the recipe :) Jo -- yes thanks I enjoyed looking at that I really like...

Ai put "interesting shadows" on her list a few weeks ago and I thought it was really good so I put it again! :) I'll try to do some too... if the sun will come out :)

Jo -- The books are great, you got really good contrast in that one! I too would love to see one of your aunt's illustrations. Joan -- churro donut made me laugh, that just looks ridiculously decadent :) I got in the habit a few years ago reducing saturated fats in our diet, and now that I'm...

#4 Dog :) I will try to post the next one by 7AM April 25th in Thailand.....

Wow, a lot here since I checked in! Ai -- that Bangkok theme shopping mall painting is cool, love the composition. Who would expect Venice in Thailand! :) Like the plane and the rickshaw. That patio is fantastic, there's so much depth and the colors are great, I'm impressed that it's direct...

Jo -- like the "sketchy" porch and the trees are great, I always like your trees in ink. Will answer your nice PM soon :) Ai -- like your pen sketches, especially the bottle. Good idea to use toy pooches! Joan -- those have great colors. Went on a little longer walk and found these school...

Fletch -- great job on that hat!! :) I thought of an anchor too! I went on a very short walk and stopped here on my way home... I used the "watercolor dots on palette paper" and it worked pretty well! The scarlet lake dot fell off when I opened it... but I didn't need that color today. #1...

Thanks for the list Jo!

Hi All, enjoyed looking through all of these! ( Great sky Joan! ). I'm on the mend. Hopefully see ya in the next one!

Jo -- I think that was the British fellow Brian writing about mustard. I caught covid and have been resting the past couple days not doing anything but sleeping.

Ai -- I think the perspective makes it look dramatic and cool :) Fletch --- Wow! That selfie is so cool! :) Love it! This morning I cut a piece of palette paper to fit folded into my pocket sketchbook, and put dots of watercolor paint on it. I'm going to let it dry for a couple days and then...

Jo -- that lily looks like it belongs there somehow. I like the shelves and hanging lamp. Fletch -- those Easter bunnies are great.. look fluffy :) I want to use more color, but need to figure out either a better way to carry my watercolor palette ( it's in a little mint box ) or something...
