Mustache

Restarting this blog after a hiatus, with inktober 2025.

Quick line art, using animals for models.

Hammi - not a sketchcrawl

This was the third Saturday, our regular day for the PDXUSK sketchcrawl.  But we'd cancelled it, cause of delta.

And as it turned out, the weather was absolutely miserable this morning.  And I have to admit that I was relieved that I wouldn't be out tramping around in a park somewhere.

But I did do a bit of sketching in the morning, of my foster Hammi.

I was supposed to have hauled her up to the vet's this morning, for a meet and greet with her prospective furever mom.  But said mom woke up with a cough this morning, and decided to postpone the meeting, rather than risk infecting anyone else.  A sentiment I totally agree with.  Especially since the 'anyone else' happens to be the vet that will be doing Pippin's teeth next month.

Summer

 

Available for adoption at the Oregon Humane Society

An outing to Maryhill

A few sketches, followed by a trip to the museum, to see this year's plein air exhibit.

Sketchcrawl at Cornell Farm Nursery

Planned before things got dicey again, and very nearly cancelled when they did.  But a largish crowd showed up, and we hung out outside and scattered to sketch.

I attempted some of the chickens

And then went back to a strawberry plant that I'd noticed on my first pass through the grounds.

I'm sure that it's the same one that has volunteered in my yard.  Which I'd assumed was F. virginiana.
