Sketching turkeys new
      #2000270 - 11/21/07 11:56 AM Attachment (42 downloads)

Or is it turkey sketchers?

Look what I found in my computer files! Sorry Eric, Rich, and Jeremy. I just couldn't resist!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Thanks to all of you for making this forum a wonderful place for us to learn from each other and share our sketches.

Oooh, beware all those who post here! Erika has the power to transform you into a turkeyhead. The worst thing is being baked in the oven at 350 degrees for 4.5 hours, and the basting, don't get me started on the basting...

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Thanks for clarifying the images Erika. At first I thought the poor turkeys had some type of terrible growth on them!

Oh my.

I cannot* believe those fowl pictures have resurfaced. Someone really needs to baste your hard drive, Erika. You'll scare the stuffing out the folk on this forum.

Let this be fair warning of the fate that awaits any who would dare show their face at CloudyNights.



Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Hey! Keep that knife away from my head...







* Actually I'm not surprised at all...

Erika,

I think that the pictures of our friends are very revealing! I am sure that they love to talk turkey.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Carlos

A very funny redux.

To all:

I have been traveling all over the place and checking in here occassionally. I am very glad to be home and am very warmed by Erika's Thanksgiving card.

A happy holiday to all.

I look forward to seeing all the sketches here.

Best wishes, especially to Rich!

Thanks Sol! Happy to see you back again, but do take care, Erika is in a fowl mood and you might find yourself on the wrong end of the serving fork. Happy Thanksgiving!

Rich,

I hope things are progressing as smoothly as is possible.

I won'y worry about Erika's mood....at least too much. Besides there are no pictures of me to "fowl" around with.

Erika,

Why is Rich the only wild turkey? Are you implying the others are domesticated? In any event, I hope you all have a nice thanksgiving.

Seems someone may have forgotten all the sunbathing he did at NEAF this year while the rest of us were trying to solar observe.

I can hear the drum stick roll after this one. It's enough to make you feel stuffed. Such a post does help keep one stay abreast of things, however, even if its not a very meaty topic.

That is very fowl mutation indeed. You have my deepest sympathies, Sol!
