Participating in this lovely challenge; thank you, Weekly Prompts, for providing…er…weekly prompts…
At the Gilbert Riparian Preserve, a bunny, a sandpiper, a snowy egret:
Do pets in the backyard count? Our grandpuppies, Jax and Benny:
It’s been a while since I’ve participated in Cee’s Odd Ball Photo Challenge, so I looked in my files and found these:
I love this rooster sculpture, but it’s also a little odd, isn’t it?
I can’t remember why I needed a picture of jam.
This arrangement of rocks along a trail in a desert park reminds me of the Flintstone’s couch.
Ah, public art. This is supposed to be a map of our city. Why can’t I find my house?
I’m not sure I want to know how someone lost her tank top along the jogging path.
I love unicorns wherever I find them. Even inflatables. But they’re odd, right?
This summer I participated in three overlapping art challenges. I posted my last update a month ago. The Daisy Yellow Index-Card-a-Day challenge ran June through July, and July was also World Watercolor Month.
I had chosen animals as my theme for ICAD, because I wanted to practice drawing them. But I really missed my Zentangle, so I tangled the butterfly below:
This is what it looked like when it was painted. I think I like the black-and-white better:
I experimented with watercolor pencils. Either I’m not doing it right, or my pencils are crappy, because to me this hen looks like it was done in colored pencils, even though I washed the heck out of it:
Peacock:
In honor of our late dachshund, Rudi:
And this kitty looks a little like our Zoe, but not really:
And here are all my challenge projects:
Only 24, not 61, which would be one a day. Mostly that’s because most of my projects took more than one day to make. I limited myself to 45 minutes a day so I’d still have some writing time. The center column above are my World Watercolor Month paintings.
Oooo! I just had to participate in Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge today. Here are my offerings:
The bus stop in front of the local high school.
By the duck pond at the park.
At the Rose Garden at Mesa Community College.
