Super quick study for today.  I'm thinking of working up to a piece depicting a chess game in progress, so I'm playing at drawing the pieces first.  I might do this one a few more times before I'm happy with it.

Interesting sketches of the bridges and transporter! Still experimenting with intense pencils. In the same position as you Hilary waiting to move in a few weeks!

Good start Simon. Lovely daffodil Gillian and Bari, your sketch is full of feeling and emotion. Here is my sketch today. A friend sent some pictures. I sketched this one. I might develop it into a painting. Maybe.

Just a quick sketch in my journal of Lymm Cross doing a walk tomorrow round Pennington flash so might have time for a bit more detail.

Practice using graphite sticks and rice paper blending sticks . I haven’t used blending sticks before and have developed a liking  for them . I do like graphite sticks they feel very smooth against the paper , form side a bit messy to touch .

Nice sketches everyone. I thought I would give ops art a try. This was an exercise, I enjoyed it. I hadn't come across the term before today.

This one was quite easy Bari. I'm going to do a painted one I think in multi colours.
