Hi Artists:
Thanks to Gustavo the Administrator for creating a page WWSC 68 during these difficult times!
And to M9fred and Rands of Wien SC for staying in touch!

I understand a lot is going on, much of it tragic, but
we need to stay connected more than ever and SKETCHCRAWL is a great way to do this!

There's still a ot of good in the world that we see by sketching and bring out in each other by sharing Art!

Tallahassee Florida USA [RESULTS]

I was sketching leaves and felt eyes on me...2 large lizards, Knight Anoles, (escaped from Cuba!) Saw me before I saw them !

Thanks for participating and for looking at our website!

In my day, maybe the most interesting CRAWL was a snail who CRAWLED into Mama Mockingbird's nest. The mama bird imitated a bluejay as she flew away when I approached her nest. Was she telling me to leave her baby snail alone?

SO lucky to see them in your own garden!

Little Florida Green Anoles [3 inches] (above) and their
Cuban Cousin The Knight (or Equestrian) Anole [15 inches] below

I was discovered by a new (to me) reptile: As I sat drawing tree stumps, a Knight Anole sat watching me. What a surprise when I finally noticed!
Distinguished from its little American cousins by its large head in proportion to its body and bright yellow stripe, as well as its inquisitive personality, lizard was a decent model compared to the restless Florida anoles and much better than the giant but skittish green iguanas [below]:

Outstanding artwork from Tallahassee!
Animals (particularly pets) and plants are preferred motifs this sketchcrawl.
Cute dogs spending a rainy day on their pillows.
I like the beautiful drawings from fauna and flora.
Your Anoles are very interesting reptiles and your description of the snake in the birds nest is informative too.

Wonderful sketches! I think you folks show how important our pets and wildlife have been while we're mostly stuck at home.

I think the world will still be dealing with Covid 19 the rest of this year. I hope the next scheduled sketchcrawl follows your example---people managing to connect through sketching, even if people are in individual locations.

Thank you Crow Talk!

We look forward to more from Wichita...
