Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was plants. Sorry chums. I didn’t feel up to drawing much today so done a sort of abstract plant, might do something to it later.
New paintings and regular art updates.

At the Thai temple at King’s Bromley a couple of weeks ago. I thought this would be a good image to represent Asia. Thursdays #bandofsketchers prompt was Asia. Felt pen drawing.
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was history. I drew Dorothy Wyndlow Pattison, better known as Sister Dora (16 January 1832 – 24 December 1878), she was a 19th-century Anglican nun and a nurse who worked in Walsall, Staffordshire. She nursed miners after mine disasters. She is known as Walsall’s Florence Nightingale. I remember this statue in the town centre in the 1970’s. One of a very few statues of women in the UK. She died of breast cancer aged 46.


Today the #bandofsketchers prompt was fruity. Its a bit ‘sketchy’ because I was trying to draw in a dark room and it was hard to get the colours right. The fruit were real but I made the bowl up. It’s meant to be oranges and lemons in a cornish blue and white bowl.

Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was Africa. It is such a large continent with such varied flora and fauna and landscapes so I decided to draw a view of it and part of the surrounding countries from space. Drawn with felt pens. I used a plastic tub to draw round for the circle.

Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was magic. Since I have been working on a project for college based on dragons I decided to draw possibly my last one for a while. I think they are full of magic! Felt pen and black ink fine line pen.

#bandofsketchers prompt for Sunday was underfoot. This is one of our cats. We always have to step over him when he’s eating! Quick sketch from my imagination. We do have a patterned tiled floor, although not as dark as this!

Our cherry tree blossom has come out in the last few days. I decided to draw it for our #bandofsketchers prompt today. The word was Nature. I’ve seen some bumble bees around the lovely flowers. Felt pen and black ink fine line pen. It would also fit if we had a Spring prompt.

Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was power. I had to read my meter and disturbed a few spiders so I drew it. Its old and I’m trying not to use much power the way prices are going up!

Todays #bandofsketchers prompt was regeneration /renaissance. I could have done Dr Who for regeneration. But we took a friend over to the Thai Temple at King’s Bromley because it is the Thai New year. I decided to draw this Buddhistic statue as it is about regeneration in a way?
