Thanks for jumping in, Ai. I’m late to get the list and have busy days ahead, but I’ll try to get something done for this hunt.

I thought I’d let you know what’s going on in my life.

My dad passed away 2 weeks ago. He had Alzheimer’s and was 91 yrs old. His memorial was Saturday. It was a blessing that he passed now before he forgot who my mom is. They’ve been married 69 and a half years and I think it would have really been devastating to her for him not to recognize who she was. She’s also not that great of shape and it was really wearing her down to have to take care of him.

2nd bad news is my yellow lab Penny had to be put down Monday. I’m having a really hard time dealing with her loss as she was my shadow. I didn’t take a step without her being right there.

And I still haven’t moved yet but it’s getting closer. Should be sometime in February. I’m just ready to get the move over with and get everything all settled down.

Keep up the good work. I check in every so often.

Hi all, thanks for the new list Ai…
J: I’m so sorry for your losses, sending hugs…
…spent a lovely day yesterday visiting a local museum, drinking tea n eating cake, and of course sketching. I sketched this Roman stone head, he is rather strange looking, but t’was good exercise. Finished it off at home. Graphite in a4 sketch book, must have taken a couple of hours me thinks…

1. architecture…

Sorry I missed my duty –
I had it on the calendar and had been keeping an eye on it for several weeks, and then a couple days I decided to go to Israel to visit with my Kabbalah Friends at the annual world Congress and got swept away in making arrangements.
Thanks for covering for me EP.:heart:

Scatty – that is an interesting bust…..kinda primitive looking for what I thought came from Rome. Perhaps it is the beginnings of a piece???

WP, Applause!! Love the tree with roots! Hate drawing?? My drawing is love-hate. It is sort of like homework for painting.

Scatty, pretty cute tree and seeds.

I’m taking the day off, we are going to a Revel in Austin. Classical music in a casual setting. Always fun.

Slow start on this hunt. Still trying new techniques with graphite.

Jeanne – prayers are with you. Has to be a struggle to lose them both so close. Hugs.

Scatty – At first I thought that was a bust of Lenin until I read your post. Not a typical Roman sculpture. Nice shading. What is a grot? You use that frequently and I have no idea what it is. Nice media mix of pen and graph
ite.

Jo – the pine Cone makes a good seed holder. Nice pen work.

WP – your pages always bring a smile. Thanks.

Robin & Ai 👋🏼
