Jo: Thanks... Wow... well done with so many coins...great work and with the flags...super set !!!

 

[NedL]

Thanks for the list Joe!

I disappeared because of work and life again. Haven't even opened my laptop in more than a week -- and only one drawing in the past week. Hopefully I won't "disappear" for months this time. I'll try to "lurk" even if I'm not drawing!

Ai - love the hatching on the elephant. Clever find on the compass. Nice line work on the stand.

Jo - Neat little composition. Like the offset in the stapler through the container.

Ned - waves

Keep sketching
Joe

Im thinking of Jo while attemping this set....This set was done with Sennelier soft pastel on A3 size copier paper, took me about 1 hour...some pastel crumbled away in my hands...I inherrit this pastel set from our late Hunt friend, Kivrin.

@jo ...the cheese brand was Castello..is that the same as your last name ?

#8 house --> rooms --> dining room --> meal --> appetizer--> Cheese&bread
#9 wood -- a cutting board
#10 metal --cheese knife

 

[Joan T]

Sylwia, nice plastic and metal knives. Look useful! Good details on the glass too.

Ai, love the bright colors of that blossom. Ah...more food...good food on the grill. So yummy! Nice sketch of the ceramic piece? Good job on the marbles! Wonderful sketch of your art supplies. Somehow seeing art supply sketches always makes me smile. Anyone else?? Super pastel of the cheese board items! If we could reach into the post we could have a nice happy hour.

Joe, thanks muchly!

Jo, great idea for the container, but hard to track the amount if someone is sneaking in coins. lol You nailed the look of the sheer curtains...good work!

Ned, I hope for your sake you get to do some sketching and not just lurking. Sounds like you need some relaxation time.

Alabama Jama, nice lines on your pill bottle.

Sylwia - especially like the sparkle on the glass.

Ai - Love Stuff for coins association! Also like the shift in perspective. Like the pastel it looks like you were having fun. Food looks yummy as do the squashes. Nice shading.

Jo - like the shades of gray effect.

Bama Jama - Good find.

Joan - beautiful work on both buildings. Love the shading on the leaves.

EP - Nice group of sketches. I like that you usually draw some type of boundary/enclosure. Trying to think of right word to describe the effect but it makes the group look more.., finished(?). Eventually the right word will pop up but adding the boundary adds to the sketch.

Keep sketching
Joe

 

[Joan T]

Ai, your pumpkin and butternut squash are nicely done. Nice shading on them.

Alabama Jama, thanks for your comments. I was done with windows by the time I did that conservancy building. lol

EP, thanks. As always you have a great group of sketches. Did you actually make the button and the mug or were they home made by someone else?

Joe, many thanks.

Today it was too cold to be outside sketching so I looked for something that was going on inside. One of the local libraries had a "St. Patrick's Day" concert given by a pianist and cellist so I sat in the audience and sketched them.

5 - plastic keyboard - watercolors and ink
6 - wood cello

 

[jmfletch]

Joan - Two good finds. How was the music program.

Keep sketching
