        Welcome to Scavenger Hunt #551! WP might not be around so I’m jumping in to host. This is a list from a hunt I hosted back in 2007:

        The list for Scavenger Hunt #551: July 28 – Aug 5

        – A newspaper stand or box or rack (bonus: draw two different kinds)
        – A waiting room
        – Something taller than you
        – Something you pass nearly everyday
        – A grocery cart or basket
        – Piece of heavy machinery or construction equipment
        – Someone reading
        – Something crunchy
        – Something that is one colour on the outside and a different colour on the inside
        – A bus stop or shelter
        – A set of lockers (at the community centre? The bus depot?)
        – Something that smells delicious
        – Something you always take on vacation but never use
        – Something in your car that you haul everywhere with you but you never use (dig through that compartment or trunk!)
        – Vending machine (bonus: draw two different kinds)
        – Hanging plant
        – The cover of a flyer, takeout menu, or church bulletin
        – Fireplace
        – Open your electrical box and sketch the inside
        – A recyling bin
        – Fire extinguisher
        – Payphone
        – Fire alarm bell
        – Shoe with laces
        – Sunglasses (or reading glasses) with case or neck cord
        – Sewer grate or culvert or manhole cover

        Challenges:
        1. Insert a foot/shoe into three of the drawings.
        2. Try at least two sketches with colour: “Summer” colours if you’re in the northern hemisphere; “Winter” colours if you’re in the southern hemisphere; and vibrant colours if you’re near the equator.
        3. If you wear glasses, take them off and then sketch an item – sketch what you see not what you know it is.

        Have fun! Cheers!

                    Thanks for the new list, Eyepaint, and what a great opener (<- because the footwear is, like, on two pages?) Haha. My apologies. That was weak. :angel:

                        …nice list, and super opening sketch of the shoe…

                        1. Something crunchy…this is one of sweet Ruby dogs toys, t’is a dragon, rather a cute one. Don’t know what it’s stuffed with, but it makes a lot of crackly crunchy noises as she chews on it, and she loves it. A5 pen n watercolour, bit less than the hour…

                                EP, great opener. Like those shoes.

                                Scatty, awwww, such a cutie of a dragon.

                                Robin, your people are so full of life. Great gestures. They make me smile.

                                I sketched in the big ‘ol book with a Prismacolor 01. It took way too long, I see that I quit shadowing the rocks as I gave up. I had planned a basket and fireplace tools but after an hour I decided, no!

                                Number 2, fireplace
