Blind Contour First Friday – JUNE
My submission for Niff and Sutter’s Blind Contour Fridays. If you follow the link and check out everyone’s work, you’ll see it’s a great deal of fun. This month’s theme is “My Favorite!” which in this case is a messed up bottle of HP Sauce – my favourite condiment. I imagine this is how the…

Niff and Sutter’s third ‘Blind Contour First Friday’. The theme is ‘breakfast time’. Here you find a bag of milk, an empty bowl and an egg carton. Really.

Blind Contour Friday 25 – the brush pen
Another Blind Contour Friday submission (see Inkfinger for the whole list), this time with a brush pen. These are two women who sat in front and across from me, in the single-person seats along the left side of the bus. Another person sitting further along, I liked the feel of texture in the brush. I…
