This week’s prompt was favorite imaginary animal. I’d thought about gelflings and griffins and then looked up and saw my plush Peep collection, and decided to draw that instead.

The two prompts this week were “emerge” and “what lies beneath”. I decided to incorporate both in my page, plus try out some new pens my husband gave me: Sakura Glaze. Very pretty, but the scan doesn’t do the shine justice.
Sketchbook Peek: Happy Creek

The day before Memorial Day I was supposed to go on a sketchcrawl at the National Zoo. However, I’d underestimated the traffic-snarling power of Rolling Thunder. When it took me two hours just to get to Arlington, I decided to stay west of the Potomac and wandered aimlessly down I-66 until I stopped randomly in The Plains. After grabbing lunch at the farmer’s market, I stopped in Happy Creek Coffee and Tea and tried their nitro cold brew coffee. Quite tasty, even if I did have a little bit of trouble with the proportions of my glass.
(And yes, I know it says Honey Creek. I fixed it after scanning.)
Because the cafe shares its space with Haymarket Bicycles, there was a gorgeous chandelier made of bicycle parts and coffee paraphernalia. It was quite fun to draw.
So even though I missed the sketchcrawl, I’m glad I still took the time to do a little sketching on my own.
