Day 5-10 Sketches 2025

 Sketches for days five through ten. So far, so good! I've only missed one day, when we had to go out of town for a med refill, my b12 shot, and some groceries ahead of the snow headed our way.

So far I've been sketching things I can see from my recliner, while holding my sketchbook in one hand and sketching with the other, using my favorite Zig Writer bullet marker. The last one is from an original photo on my computer while holding the computer on my lap and trying to balance my sketchbook while sketching. Not the ideal situation!

I wound up overlapping these three days instead of doing a sketch to a page. They are my favorite coffee cup, a decorative bird cage gifted to me by my sister-in-law, and a jade plant in a pale turquoise crackled ceramic pot.

I meant to overlap a third sketch with this wind chime and coffee cup, but it didn't turn out that way.

Today's sketch is from an original photo on my computer of a garden figurine also gifted to me by my sister-in-law, who is no longer with us. 

Just trying to re-establish the habit of daily sketching, even if it's just five or ten minutes. It helps!
