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 coverChallenges:
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!

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…

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 1, flyer or bulletin – flyer from a potter and a map of the enchanted circle
Number 2, fireplace
