Here are two quick sketches I did this morning for the challenge . Done in my sketch book in pencil. They are of the sea lion and a wallaby.

Good ' lively ' sketches Lesley. They capture the the expressions well.
Cheers,
Patricia

 

[CaliAnn]

Rainowl: Love your sketches - very expressive

 

[ams]

Rainowl, I like your sketches, especially the wallaby.

Here's my sketch this month. I did the tropical fish with ink and watercolor in XL MixMedia sketch book. It doesn't take the watercolor the way true watercolor paper does but it works ok for sketches. It's about 7" square.

 

[CaliAnn]

Beautiful fish Anne - the transparency you achieved is excellent!

 

[pcj]

Anne - Great work on the fish.
Cheers,
Patricia

Wonderful work, Patricia! You got so much out of so few colors. And the furry texture of its coat is so well done. Wow!
