Friday Blind Contour Drawing

Here is my Friday Blind Contour Drawing.   This time I used my Sanford Mechanical Pencils.
It is a very famous or well know House out West.

Candle light Sketching

Well here is my first posting for the Sketchbook Challenge.  It was done at the Red Rock Bistro.
It was the day of the Snow storm.  With high gusty winds.   It is close enough for me to walk too.

Actual iPhone Shot of view and lighting

This shows you the basic light that I had to sketch by.   I was there alone for most of the time.   Then Wednesday night regular group came in for their Rare Steaks and Red Wine.
They were off to the right of me.   On the left is the Ocean.   It was impossible to photography by the time I got there.  You can see the Ocean in the left hand corner.    Ducks were bobbing in the that cold icy water.   To get here,  I stomped through the 18 + inches of snow on the walk way of the Ocean.
It was a lovely night and a fun walk home.    More photos coming.
This sketch was done entirely with my Japanese Fountain Pen, a female, with Noodler's V-mail Mid-Way Blue.  It is a really lovely blue.

First Friday Blind Contour Drawingof 2011!

This is the Drawing of my Window!   It is one of Six windows in the front room.  

I am working a full colored Drawing of this Blind Contour.  I am going on my Birthday to Virginia to see the Grand Picasso Show.

This window faces the Great North Atlantic Ocean Facing The East!  The Sunrises are Spectacular. 

In this Window Hangs My Mother's Flag-  My Eldest is a Major in the United States Army.

Behind the Flag which I see each Day is an icicle, with little bells on it.  There is only the White Valance with Ribbon Panels that have different colored little flowers all over them.  

I am changing Curtains this Spring.  I will miss these sheers.  Maybe they still have them.  Or maybe, I should Celebrate the Year with the New!  Storing my loving Memory.  Thank-you, Peggy, for such a wonderful memory.  I do apologize for the photo.  I noticed My iPhone was not focusing.  New on my Birthday. Yeah!!!! 

Here is my Friday Blind Contour Drawing: Featured at Friday Contour Drawing.  Thank-you so much Peggy for Showcasing my Blind Contour Drawing.

Well, here is the Friday Blind Contour Drawing for my Blog.

It is from watching:  Four Brides and Four Weddings, which I watched after a reapeat of " Just Say Yes to the Dress.   As You can see I used the New Palomino Blackwing, for this drawing.  The Palomino Blackwing as a true elegant feel when drawing.  It Glides across the paper.   I am still using the Vicki's sketchbook, Under Mad Anthony's Banner

Happy New Year! Blind Contour Friday Eve!

The Interview after the Game: Vikings VS Eagles in Philadelphia--- Tuesday Night Football first Since 1946, when New York Giants and Boston Yanks were set to open their regular season on Monday Sept. 30 at Braves Field in Boston, MA. but torrential downpour of rain forced the teams to move the game to Tuesday.

Need more Purple and in this Color version.   Going to go play some more. 

Made with Palomino Blackwing Pencil HB Graphite and some enhancement with the Sanford 0.5mm HB Graphite Favorite, Mechanical Pencil.   I am using Faber Castell Colored Pencils.    These interviews always look so funny.  They should at least put Her on a stand so she does not break Her neck.   The players always look like it is a pain in the neck too!    

Friday Contour Drawing

This is the Sketchbook from Vicki Holdwick that I purchased from Her.  I decided it is to contain a year plus of Contour Drawings.   I will move this to my new Blog- Quiltknit Blind Contour Drawings  later today. 

I have been watching Thursday Night Football and of course this is the Scene you see with the four announcers.  This of course is the Heinz Football Field - In The Steelers colors I need to use black for some enhancement of the drawing.      So much fun to just keep drawing and not watching.  I was surprised the people look like they might be at a table.
Yes, I used my favorite Mechanical Pencils for drawing- Sanford PhD 0.5mm HB lead.
Yes, I used colored pencils for enhancement.
