Ai -- I like the ink! Good shape on the hanging tire. I walked today hoping to see a California Nutmeg tree ( not related to the spice at all ). I found some. One had fallen and been cut where it crossed the path so I picked a twig from it. The little round parts are called pollen cones...

Ai -- the flowers are lovely. I like the way the pink and green go together in that one. The yellow flowered tree is cheerful and great! Like the explosion of color over the wall. Landhaus bakery looks like a good place, I'm getting hungry almost time for dinner! Robin -- the lines in the...

Thanks to TK and Christine and the always friendly mods! This is very very welcome news. And thanks to Hannah and Ayin for building and running this great forum until now.

Hi All, I'm home again! Will comment more later but wanted to say Joan I like the colors in that last one a lot. :) Oh and that's great news that the forum will continue!

Hi all! Quick stop on my way back from fishing today. #1 trees A photo Hard to see the scale from that, this is a little better... they are enormous

I've enjoyed looking at your sketches Joan, Robin, Jo, and Fletch. Hitting the road, see you in the next one :)

Jo -- I like your sketches and particularly the tree "nature". Sometimes sketches can look more interesting than the tree itself, with those branches coming off the sides it has character. Ai -- good job on the bananas, I think that citrus might be a kumquat but it could be a calamondin ( from...

Ai -- oh wow, that's wonderful!

Ai -- different people above and below the table made me smile. That bar has a nice form and rhythm to it! Gale force winds and rough seas over at the coast. My jeep was jostling back and forth enough to make it a little difficult to draw. We've had rain the past few days so it was nice to...

Jo -- ha ha, our first game of the year was at night and it was cold and windy and it was a mercy rule LOSS. Ugh. Won both games of the DH the next day though. We lost 3 of our best players to the portal and it might be a rough year, but I still enjoy it win or lose. Ai -- glad you got a...

Joan -- I like the colors you used for Sayville, and maybe toned paper? Makes it seem cold but also peaceful and quiet. The 3-5 minute portraits are amazing. I'd pick up my pen, draw a line, and it would be time for the next one! :) Pine Cone -- can definitely see the scrubby shrub, it's...

Hi Fletch, the announcement was here: Do you love Creative Spark

From last week, I made that posca marker print yesterday. The acrylic ink cracked by the time I printed it, but I think it looks kind of neat that way. Just playing around to see what things look like.... I think this could make something good with more intentional neat lines.... #0 for...

Ai -- thanks for the list Joan -- wow on the colored pencil sketches!

Got a little behind on comments and posting.... yesterday I made another of those posca sketches for printing, but won't have time to make the print until later. About to leave for a couple games and won't be back until tomorrow night. Bringing pocket sketchbook in case there's time tomorrow...
