That’s a lovely selection Margaret and while we are on tractors, by coincidence this is my sketch from my morning walk earlier, the man was cutting wood.

Thanks Margaret, we might need to revive and restart the  sketch a day for the foreseeable future! It could be really useful for anyone stuck indoors. 😊

Yes, was wondering about that!  However, Dawn has started a new Daily Photo challenge with 2 photos for us to paint, which looks really good - nobody seems to have posted any sketches yet but I'm planning to have a go later on so that her effort has not been wasted.

Nice sketching everyone and I agree with Tessa this thread is must the way things are going. Had my brief from my sketch club by email today it was to draw anything to do with bread so here is what I did.

Where did you get that loaf Christopher, and how long did you have to queue for it!? Good subject nicely done. I’m going to continue the daily sketch until the end of March, not long now, and then reconsider. I do feel it’s given me confidence to tackle subjects I probably wouldn’t have done before, and I’m still enjoying it and enjoy seeing what others do. I will have a go at Dawn’s lambs as well.

I agree with what you have said Tessa, I will also consider my options at the end of the month. I will probably give Dawns challenge a go as well, I will have a lot of spare time if we cannot get out, or a heavily restricted.

Sorry I hadn't managed to contribute much lately. Hope you are all keeping well and safe. Loved going through the everyone's fabulous sketches. Sharing a little made up floral painting I did for the postcard challenge.

Beautifully painted, lovely colours Anjana, and would certainly cheer me up if I were lucky enough to receive this as a postcard.

Some good work yet again nice tractor Tessa, can I place  an order for a loaf Chris, and bright and cheerful colours Anjana. Change fro trucks and tractors today, used a old holiday photo taken quite a few years ago. A5 size.

Lovey flowers Anjana and I like the coastal scene Dixie. Mine is a sketch of the cafe I usually frequent but sadly yesterday was the last time I get to go there for awhile as they have had to shut now because of the coronavirus.

It’s a shame to see so many little places like this closing Christopher, at least you captured it well for the memory. Hopefully it will open again when all this is over, but a lot won’t. Can you imagine when the pubs reopen!? Dixie, you’re getting very proficient at painting ships, another good one. I thought I might find a ship photo to do but gave in and settled for the Pladda lighthouse in Scotland, having looked it up after seeing it on tv.
