challenges 182, 199, 206, 209 210



210 Draw some underwear. These are my thin and life-saving long underwear that I needed for several winters when we moved from Texas to St Louis. I still wear them on winter days when it's really cold.
209 is draw a shadow. On our way to Minnesota last summer I saw this amazing shadow on a barn in northern Missouri. It would be interesting to sit and sketch it as the sun moved, kind of like a sundial.
206 is "we call it.." We call cats cats and kitties and kittens. In Britain they are mogs or moggies.
199 Draw a toe. It seemed odd not to include all of them.





182 Draw a truck. This old firetruck was sitting in a barnyard in Vermont.

The little red truck is wonderful . It really has its own personality.
I have two cats but only one is a moggy. The other is himalayan.

Your work is very accomplished - lovely stuff. I'm going to try the 20 circles myself in a minute or so, and am going to remember this when my grandchildren come and stay on rainy days. Thanks for the idea!
