Days 5 - 9 Extremely un-extreme sketching

I was chuffed to get a stern email from a certain neighbour asking what happened to days 5,6,7,8,9. Now I know that at least one person actually reads this thing (just looking at the pictures is also OK). I've been sick. Being stuck indoors and a cold rainy weekend is not good for an urban scribbler. But, part of this challenge was to force myself to draw something other than buildings and street lamps...

Day 5: Fortunately I had a parking garage and house I could draw just sitting in the lounge.


Then I turned to my all time back-up subject matter.


Day 6: Was forced outdoors by Isabel.

Day 7: Isabel stood in for me. She's taking the sketch a day challenge very seriously. This is of a snail and a penguin (oh our daughter is an artistic genius).


Day 8: Starting to get desparate, but shoes are kind of interesting.


Day 9: Comfort food - Marmite on hot buttered toast. I am a devoted fan. I once travelled for 3 hours, half way across Taiwan, by scooter, train and then taxi to get to a shop I had heard sold Marmite. It cost R50 and I bought some.
