Every Day in May 2016, #31 - THE LAST DAY! - The VIEW OUT MY WINDOW

Every Day in May #31, "A View Out My Window"
The LAST ONE!! This time I did them all! And I am finished before midnight of the last day. Not my best work, but I am tired. And I am done. Very fun month!
Until next year at this time . . . .
Keep sketching!

Every Day in May 2016, #30 - Draw a FEATHER

EDiM#30 - Draw a Feather
So many choices on this island - eagle, heron, Stellar jay, seagull, crow, hummers, owl, garden birds . Hmmm.
Fantasy feather. Yeah. Fantasy feather.
30 down, one to go. . . .

Every Day in May 2016, #29 - a CONDIMENT

EDiM #29 - "Condiment"
Aaaannnddd, I am caught up. Two to go. 

So the questions are - paper or plastic? Burger or dog? Coke or Pepsi? Catsup or mustard? Plastic, burger, neither and MUSTARD only, please! Preferably Inglehoffer Stone Ground. I discovered and fell in love with it when I was a USMC recruiter working in Portland and living in Beaverton, Oregon. Then it was made by Beaverton Foods and came in little, squat jars of wonderfulness. Now it is still made by Beaverton Foods, but is called Inglehoffer, and comes in several kinds of jars. It is still so good I eat it straight from the jar with a spoon.

Every Day in May 2016, #28 - Draw something seen on a NATURE WALK

EDiM #28 - Draw Something From a Nature Walk
Here he is, folks, the unofficial State Animal of Western Washington; Ariolimax columbianus, the Pacific Banana Slug. Just TRY to take a nature walk, or sit on a bench, turn over a log, walk barefoot anywhere or sleep outside in a sleeping bag and not find him! Or his slime trail (which, incidentally, you can't get off). Wanna get rid of them? Get yourself some nice Ancona or white Peking ducks!

Every Day in May 2016, #27 - Tea

EDiM #27 - "Tea"
I love that the big overgrown bush outside my living room window, which is covered with huge, beautiful Alizarin Crimson blooms in the spring, is related to TEA! My bush is a decorative camellia, with those flashy blooms and dark green foliage. Tea is brewed from the dried leaves of Camillia Seninsis, grown on the cool moist slopes of Japan and China and in the rich soils of India.

Every Day in May 2016, #25, 26 - Draw something in a JAR, and INSECTS

EDiM #25 - Something in a Glass Jar, and #26 - Insects
Summer in the Midwest - catching fireflies at dusk in a glass jar. I miss that about Michigan. No fireflies in the great Pacific Northwest (that I have found . . .)

Every Day in May 2016, #24 - Draw my favorite FRUIT, or VEGETABLES
