Here’s a quick sketch on a recent dog walk trecking round a very large field with some lovely old tree shapes and shadows.

Thank you very much Dixie, Tessa and Alan.  Nice fresh garden sketch Dixie, and that is a very effective sketch, Tessa - lovely colours.

Thank you Linda and well done Christopher. I find shoes difficult to make convincing but these look fine.

Just noticed a black line in the painting, not sure where that came from?

Beautiful bright flowers, an excellent Captain Tom, very stylish (and beautifully drawn) trainers and a lovely tranquil seascape.  I did quite a lot of sketching outside yesterday - here is the one I did if the pieris. Apologies - the sketch is the right way up in the my phone gallery and as our router isn't working I can't use the laptop.
