Some lovely work here girls. Linda, I don’t do Facebook either but was able to watch the live portrait painting connected to the Mall Galleries exhibition yesterday without joining. The BBC 4 live life drawing is coming up again I think next Tuesday? Check the date, I may be wrong but I know it’s soon.

Lover work ladies. Had a busy day today. Street party this after with social distensing. Was good to chat to neighbours. Suddenly remember I had not posted a sketch. This is a quick one done yesterday, trying to use as few lines as possible. Pen and watercolour.

Devotion to duty Dixie remembering this after your busy day! I think your tractor is lovely and it has two eyes and a face. 😀

I like your tractor Paul, the different angle of looking at it straight on makes a complete change and stands out more. Good drawing!!

Took this picture on my morning walk yesterday if you are interested in sketching it Paul.

Lovely sketch Margaret and the beach looks serene and love your marker wash Linda and of course the version of tractor Paul.. they are all good.. I did my abstract sketch after following a demo on Instagram by an artist Sally Clark. I liked the approach and I tried it out with my winsor&newton markers.

Very nice abstract painting Nandhini.  I’m being a bit lazy today instead of doing a sketch I’m using the rough drawing I’ve made for a painting  I started this afternoon. And with base coat in some areas.

That’s rather nice Nandhini, looks. Like stained glass which I love.  Linda, not sure what your machine is, in doubt Dixie will know? Certainly a challenge! Well this is a sign of a lazy day in the garden mostly enjoying the sunshine before the temperature drops over the next few days. Again the hubby said something about the subject matter! 😂 Edit....Just saw your lovely boat scene Dixie, for some reason I didn’t or couldn’t see them when I wrote the above. Maybe typing same time.

Like your tractor, Dixie and the boats are coming on well; lovely colourful abstract, Nandhini - has worked really well; wasn't warm enough for bare feet here (in my opinion anyway!) though it was very nice - nice sketch, Tessa.   Very quick sketch of a postman (though this has turned out about gender neutral) - he was far away and moving fast so only got the colour on before he disappeared - added line from imagination and memory much later.

Love the looseness of this Margaret and the use of bold colour on shirt and bag. Mine today is a sketch of a painting I did a while ago do staddle stones. I’ve been trying to read a book on drawing by Ruskin (a bit heavy going) and so trying to concentrate on tones rather than lines.
