Wow, that is good, Linda. Lovely curves.
This has really gathered momentum and there are so many good things to look at!   I am under the impression that the BBC is going to do a live life drawing thing.  Am I making it up or is that going to happen.  I don't seem to be able to find anything on the website about it.  Does anyone know?  Thanks.

BBC 4, life drawing, details at the end of coming week I think.
Quick sketch for future painting of my youngest grand daughter.

Re did legs
Beautifully sketched, be nice to see the painting when it’s done.
Posting this today as I’m at the hospital most of the day tomorrow. The standard of work is getting better and better, as in sure you have noticed, everyone should brilliant by the end of the month. This won’t be too difficult to achieve as most people are there already. A bit different type of painting, although I did one at Christmas.

Thank you Marjorie.  It will be interesting to see how that works.  I suspect it developing from the live RA thing a few years ago.
More lovely paintings/sketches.  Good luck at the hospital tomorrow Dixie.  That BBC4 programme (and the BBC2 one) sounds interesting - thanks for highlighting it Gudrun and Marjorie.
Lovely blue-tit in watercolour Paul, good luck with the hospital tomorrow. Marjorie the sketch of your grand daughter is so beautiful I am in awe, you've got that lovely pose spot on, I couldn’t see to begin with what you had changed between the two versions despite you specifying, then I realised, think I learnt something just by studying the difference. Ooh Gudrun, will keep an eye out for the program thanks for sharing. Linda fantastic sketch of Siamese fighter fish with its swishy tail, Fiona extraordinary details(and you have a day version too!) on the finger plate which you have sketched so well, great sketch Alan of a very interesting miners lamp, bold sketch Tessa of the old gate - works really well, Margaret fabulous pen and wash- love the looseness as always. Orchid for Day 19 I have bit more success in growing these than any other flowers mainly because they are more tolerant of neglect :-)

One of the seating huts along the sea front in Falmouth, not sure I got the foreshortening right it's a very lose sketch

Great sketches going in, love your granddaughter one Marjorie, nice blue tit painting Paul, great orchid sketch Anjana and like your seating huts Christopher, quite hard to do with those steps and the perspective. I tried editing  my fish drawing on the gallery, but it still won't let me. Is anyone else having this problem.
