No end in sight of the COVID Pandemic!
So we sketched at home again.
I got sketches and photos from Arco Iris and John - Thanks for participating!
Arco Iris
Arco Iris sent me a drawing from shelves with plants and some Christmas decoration.
She used metallic markers and watercolor brush pens for the first time.
The snowman is self-made (3D-printed) and is iluminated with a LED which changes color.

The morning was gray in gray, cold outside and some light snowfall.
To warming up my sketching muscles I made a quick sketch of my coffee mug and afterwards from some items in the kitchen which are essential for my morning routine.
After a second cup of coffee I went to the living room in order to open the window and stumbled upon the mistreated remnants of a plush toy which probably has been torn to pieces by a dangerous beast during the last night.
I thought of our notorious repeat offender first but the usual suspect pretended to be innocent and I had no concrete evidence!
So I scanned the surroundings very thoroughly and coincidentally I found some small footprints leading to a dark corner and vanishing under a cupboard.
Very worrying!
I kept calm and after a few minutes a fierce looking mythical creature appeared from the dark.
John
John sketched two smaller items which belong to his daughter.
A self-made Origami elephant and a painted piggy bank.

Wow, Y'all are amazing! How your artwork advances!
Aber, Vorsicht: No Plush Toy is safe in your neighborhood!
We are excited to see Arco Iris's depiction of various materials with new media.
John sent me a gif he made of my bird sketch. I enjoy picking out triangles in youer elephant sketch. Is it self-made, too? How about animating your elephant, or your Schweinchen: wie niedlich!
Aber wirklich, M9fred, ich denke, die zweite Tasse Kaffee ist für sie sehr detaillierten Skizzen der Stoffstruktur verantwortlich!

Dear Rands,
Thanks for checking our Tallahassee page again, and also for your many helps with language.
That was the first time I was approached by otters on land!
Very exciting!
But iguanas and alligators are rather common here.
The flock of Green Parrots has increased, maybe for migration. They are SOO loud.
I had studied Alrecht Durer's sketch of his wife a few days before I drew the leaf on Sketchcrawl Day.
So I guess that was my Inspiration to draw the leaf that way.
maybe just...Viel Gluck!

Re: Vienna, Austria [RESULTS]
Vielen Dank für deine nachdenklichen Kommentare, M9fred.
We looked at Wien sketchcrawl in my art classes.
As for the similarities betwee my Fern Leaf and Agnes Durer's sleeve/hair...it was unintentional.
Funny how some thing are absorbed by the mind and re-surface unexpectedly later!

Hi Arco-Iris
My friend Dan built a 3-d printer.
Did you also build one?
Anyway, I enjoy your cheerful depiction of familiar objects.

Really fun to see these sketches from your group!
It is like a story, wandering through familiar places with events of coffee time, dog time, and friends. Nice drawings all.
