I've been out of the loop of this group for quite a while; have there any events of note?

What are you looking for? Besides this https://writeoff.me/schedule/all, not sure.

Well! This is a somewhat restrictive prompt, visually, but let's see what we can make of it.

As Mister Rosewater is fond of saying "restrictions breed creativity". All you need for this one is a hurricane of some sort but just how does the eye of one "blink"?

See, if I could actually draw I could think of all sorts of things to draw that a "a sheep". Could be a mass of puffballs that look like a sheep, a wolf in a sheep skin, a mass of people blindly following another's doctrine. The restriction of "a sheep" is very board.

But sadly I can't draw. I have a tablet and intended to learn but like so many of my other endeavors I'm too lazy to see it through... .

Then take a photograph. We've seen a lot of those entered. Even a few sculptures from things lying around the house.

A good crop of art this time! Let me get started. All reviews are guaranteed to be composed of 18% acerbic wit, 32% pawkish muggery, .5% informed artistic judgement, 22% wild speculation, 10% counterfactual rambling, and 17% imprecise estimation, all compacted into the tersest sentences possible. And absolutely none* of them will be false reviews levied at my own works!

* Some.

OK!

For the first time in way too long, I've got a rough draft in! And still half a day to make revisions!
