shell game


#DrawingAugust on Twitter is over for another year.
I've drawn every day but have posted occasionally. I've been online only briefly in recent weeks, and some days not at all. With the hay situation, ordinary life requires many more hours of physical activity than my usual routine. And, happily, it's been mostly Not! Raining! for the past several days, which means spending as much time as possible working outdoors.



Towards the end of August I sketched a whelk shell using watercolor pencil.
Then another.
And another.
 


In watercolor pencil or in soluble graphite pencil.


Using two or three colors or tones for each sketch.


This one was last night:


I just wanted to share them with you.

Wishing you a happy Labor Day if you are in the US, and a very happy Monday if you are anywhere else in the world.
