Memory of summer
Im there again
amongst the scents
of floral heaven.
baskets of joy
lavender spikes
cornflowers glowing blue.
heady pinks
nasturtiums
and twining vines.
Over all
an angel
protecting and
providing
sunshine
rain
and light.
New paintings and regular art updates.

Trying to draw on the computer using my Wacom tablet. It’s hard because I usually doodle with a finger on my phone or with a stylus on a tablet. I actually find this harder to do, and I need practice. This is for a #bandofsketchers prompt for today. If I get it done I will post it here. Back to work…

My purple coat that I walked nine miles in. It’s still wet! #bandofsketchers prompt was purple. Sitting on the settee with a stripey cover on it. I’m surprised how mant purple felt pens I’ve got. It is one of my favourite colours. X

Digital drawing on top of a photo of a paper cut snowflake. Then I put it through some filters and added digital glitter. I must be channeling summer! I’m pleased how it has a three dimensional feel.

Drew a spiral and duplicated it. (I think it looked like the cross section of a trunk). Then I drew round the duplicated pieces in black (using a symmetry tool so both sides match). It’s quite simple to do. I guess if I was cutting it out of paper I could have folded it in half and got a similar effect….

Spoon on a chair throw. My version of shiny… My drawing for today’s #bandofsketchers prompt.
Drawn with felt pens and permanent marker pens. Why a spoon? It was an opportunity to draw the bowl of the spoon and the way the reflections curve round it. The handle is a bit wonky, but not bad. Reasonably happy with it.

Watched Sky Portrait artist of the year, semi final with Booker Prize winner, Bernadine Evaristo as the sitter. I got an image of her from the net and tried to draw her. It’s not a good likeness but I tried. Thirty to Forty minute drawing. Felt pens on cartridge paper.
Drawings found in a cupboard today. They are of Fly Agaric toadstools. No date to say when I did them so it must be several years ago. The drawing is unfinished, so it might be when we were moving house? I found some paints at the same time….


Memory of the 1970’s and 80’s. The punk era. Digital drawing done on the sketcher free app. I drew this three years ago so I don’t remember it much. Found on my Facebook memories….

#bandofsketchers prompt. My cluttered desk, there’s a keyboard for the computer under there somewhere. Used slightly more muted colours. I’ve definitely got too much ‘stuff’ in my life!
