Ai, at one time I read all the Stephen King books, but then they started being too strange. Love the still life with the fun bobble-head Elvis. Interesting teapot decorations.
Jo, Ai found a good one for honky-tonk.
Grapes, nice painting with the pumpkin and the flowers. Hope the pineapple makes an appearance.
Ned, will go and grab the new hunt.
This is the final sketch in another sketchbook.
13 - luxury (a nice big porch with seating) - watercolors and ink

Grapes: Glorious pumpkin piece
Joan: Wowza on the lux estate home... just glow with fall colors too. Congrats in finishing a sketchbook.
Robin: Love your ink set, nice selfies... they are quite challenging, aren't they. Nice details on the bill... good volume in the stick tied collection.
Jo: Great job with Gene's wheelchair. Glad he makes great recovery.
Ned: Such a wonderful sub. for a racket sport.

Jo - happy cards....such pleasure/treasure!! I like the dark surround on the cat orcarina!! nice pen - it "clicks"
Joan love the many steps sketch -- unusual feeling to have eyes move up that way...gives fun feeling.
lots of free air in the free space sketch - fresh! thanks The bubble gum sunbather reminds me of how goofy I feel when I sit in the sun too long. Your sketch is well supported by the detailed background - nice.
Ai - Yay!! you got to sketching!! loose bannana tree sketch good opening! Ooooh I love the direct Chinese ink - I will try that on the next hunt...would be nice change from switching colors. Love the keep-it-simple black lines on blue background. Nice book cover. I read on stephen King about 12 yrs ago about an artist whose ameture paintings started coming true!!!! my son-in-law suggested it...it was a nice change .
Grapes - wow- swwweet painting. Contrast of fall squash with blossom is intreguing element!
Fletch - making christmas cards is fun !!! enjoy yourself!
NedL I went thru all the exercises in Drawing on the Right side of the Brain - Now I can't remember which side is dominate/nondominate BUT I will never forget the sensation of "timing" one side out and then learning to work them together! It's a great book!! Your loose color adds alot - that sky is so cool! ooops, it's background trees....anyway...it's nice.
let's keep sketching!!!

Made me laugh because that's exactly what I was thinking. I was starting a darker background and then I thought "this looks nice... I'll just stop!... so what if it's more like sky!"
Good job.

Grapes, love the pumpkin/pineapple and the promise of more in the painting! Well done.
Ned, will check the new Hunt!
Joan, Mmm, your luxury orch with the wicker is beautiful and the fall colors. !!!
Ai, awww, sweet about the airplane. My zapper would be my item for racket as well. Well done on both. Hey, there is a new “z” word!
I sketched on my footstool and watched a Halmark movie. So bad….. This is the bottom of the page in the big sketchbook with a Pilot ballpoint pen.
Number 5 quilt - sub blanket on the couch and Number 6 gum - sub a Tootsie Roll Pop. I hadn’t seen any of those in ages and bought a few at the convenience store, this is the last one and is cherry.
