Today was a day spent driving the kids to all their various appointments and activities. During the waiting time I worked on this little sketch. At some point I realized it was going to be dark before I ever got a chance to finish painting, so I plunked him on the hood of the van right then and there and snapped this picture. His feet aren't finished but I think this is enough evidence that I (will) have done my daily sketch. This little rascal gets on our screen porch several times of year and chatters away. I'm not sure if he is telling us how happy he is to visit, or cussing us out for not clearly marking the exits. Our porch is very popular with the local wildlife, we had a raccoon a few nights ago, and a possum last summer. Although we get excited about our visitors, the latter two aren't opposed to making their own exits, so husband has to redo the screens more often than he cares to.
