Thursdays #bandofsketchers prompt was solid. I went a bit mad and abstract. I wasn’t sure whether to try and draw platonic solids (not successful). Then I put it through a couple of filters. So it’s colourful and a bit textured.

Transparent
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was transparent. I drew a piece of lime floating in a glass of tonic water. It’s hard to draw when your felt pens are drying up. The transparency is difficult to define and delineate. The colours aren’t right, but give an idea of what it looked like.
Peppers
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was vegetables. Just drew some sweet peppers. I like the different colours you can get. Felt pen drawing of them in about twenty minutes. I chose a generic image off the Internet as an example.
Current
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was current. Oh dear! I struggled to think of anything that fitted the prompt so I went for something silly and a play on words. Current and Currant, homophones
Flash
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was flash. I doodled these last night but I think they fit in with the prompt ‘flash’. These are quite flashy. Drawings of vase designs. Felt pen drawing and fine ink liner pen. Not well today so doing this yesterday made life easier.
Allsorts…
Tuesdays #bandofsketchers prompt was Sugar. I could have drawn granulated sugar, but I chose to draw liquorice allsorts. They were my favourite sweets. I would peel them apart, eat the sweet stuff first then finish it with the liquorice afterwards. Felt pen drawing and black fine ink liner pen.
#bandofsketchers prompt
Today’s prompt was Halloween. I decided to take my idea from the pumpkin that I carved last year. So we have a cute/hellish cat glowing neon yellow sitting on a lawn waiting for any trick or treaters. Will it bite their ankles? Who knows…. Purr
Door
Tuesdays #bandofsketchers prompt was door. So I drew a hobbit style door to cheer myself up. Felt pen and black ink fine line pen. The door would be solid oak and a neat flower bed would be planted on either side of it. I love the story the Lord of the Rings, I’m not sure about the films, but I have a set of cassette tapes that have the Lord of the Rings radio series that was broadcast by the BBC in about 2000?
Lens
Sundays #bandofsketchers prompt was lens. I like drawing magnifying glasses and trying to get a good feeling of reality from an imagined object. This is my idea of how a lens looks. Felt pen drawing and fine ink liner pen. I used some metallic pens to give it a bit of a sheen.
Trees
Tuesdays #bandofsketchers prompt was Trees. Twenty minute sketch, ‘watching them change colour’, my interpretation of trees in the autumn. Felt pen drawing.
