Interesting Things

The interesting things that happened today would fit in a nutshell. I saw a hot air balloon on the way to work. That hasn't ever happened before.

Here are the pictures to prove it. They are all drive-by shootings. I grabbed the camera as soon as I saw the tip of the balloon over the trees. I snapped the shots all the way down the road. But I won't make you look at all of them, even though it was the best thing that happened all day.

And that's it. That's all. Done.



Oh yeah, I drew too. It's a good thing I like to draw, otherwise my reports would probably have had random words written all over them (cause that is the other thing I do when I have pen in hand and paper in front of me) and unless Diahn was hosting Writober instead Artober, I wouldn't have anything else to blog about today since nothing interesting happened. So.....

Here are the pictures to prove it.....I placed my subject (art talk for leaf I picked up outside the office door) beside the leaf I drew and taped on my daily calendar to show....well the subject of today's artistic endeavor.


I'm not so great with leaves. I overworked it I think. But it is hard to make a leaf color when all you have is orange, yellow and purple highlighters, a pencil, a red and black pen to come up with something that resembles coppery brown.
I also made this quick sketch of my co-worker. The head is all wrong, but it is what it is.

And now I'm done. In a nutshell.
