Pandemic chalk

The stag image I chalked a few weeks ago faded a lot in the summer sun, so I refreshed it with a faux mosaic effect.

Chalked a free ad for the South Bay Greek Festival next weekend, as an excuse to draw Bouboulina, a Greek independence heroine.

The chalk on our front walk right now is for Back to School night (last night in my neighborhood). The image is loosely based on a photo of botanist Ethel Grace Stiffler Carpenter (1899-1995), from the Smithsonian. The square is greyer than I like, because it's been about four months since we had rain, and the chalk layers start to build up. (I know, I could hose it off.)

The chalk on our walk in September was inspired by a well-known image of Ada Lovelace.

Did the annual chalk event in Belmont Shore, where they tape paper to the sidewalks in a busy shopping district. This year my chalk was based loosely on The Sunshade by William John Leech, a 1913 painting in the National Gallery of Ireland.

For Halloween this year, the chalk on our front walk was a scattering of giant candy corns on a purple background.
