        Scavenger Hunt #574, Jan 29 – Feb 5

        Welcome to the hunt!!

        If you’ve participated in at least one Scavenger Hunt and have time to host one we would really appreciate it. You can sign up by posting your name on the current hosting schedule in the Art From Life forum here:
        https://www.wetcanvas.com/forums/showthread.php?t=366347

        Here are the rules for the hunt:

        *All items on the list must be sketched from life – not imagination or photo reference.

        *Each object you draw can count for only one item on the list, no matter how many shapes/parts/colors that object contains. This was agreed on by unanimous vote among the participants.

        *You may place multiple objects together in a drawing or painting, and may count these objects as separate items, but no single object can count for more than one item.

        *All items posted must be numbered. Count them as you go. The first item you post will be #1 regardless of its place on the list. Do them in whatever order you wish, but count them in the order in which you sketch them, from 1 to 26.

        Do as many or as few of the items as you like. You don’t have to finish the entire list to participate. The Scavenger Hunt “week” will last for 9 days, with the next hunt starting on the 9th day.

        Please tell us your size, surface, medium, and the amount of time it took you for each sketch. We love hearing about your subjects and setups. Photos of your subjects are welcome.

        *** If you have some hunt sketches completed but little time to read/comment, please post your sketches anyways. Commenting is appreciated but not necessary.*

                    a lightweight button[/color]

                    I don’t have any fairy-esque items but I tried to shade the button with a little bit of fairy dust 😊 It’s another in a long line of goofy experiments – not much to look at but loads of fun to do 😍

                            Well, a return that was only supposed to last a day has turned into a week, and I have to get back to other things now. But it was wonderful to see you all again. Your work was a fantastic inspirational top up! Have fun everyone!

                                    Pine Cone, we miss your thoughtful comments when you are not here. Love the button and the style. Hope to see you soon!

                                    Joan, ah, I like the nail and quarter. Good sketch from the meeting. One of the artists I follow used to do the yesterday sketch daily. May be good for memory senses.

                                    I sketched in the big book with a Micron 01 fine line pen/marker. I did these yesterday and posted to my blog and forgot to post here. So…. I’m off to plein air painting today. We are all wimps so will be doing a still life inside the art center again, maybe it will fit here. :)
