Elegant, not overworked, would make a fine finished painting just as it is.

It's lovely to see this with your colour mixing notes.

Super sketching Alan. Once again very satisfying to look at.

Thanks guys… this sketch forms part of a forthcoming feature in The Artist magazine, where I discuss and demonstrate the importance of keeping a sketchbook!

Great sketch Alan

Good enough to frame, the colour notes make an interesting addition.

A beautiful addition to your sketchbook Alan and I like the colour swatches to the left too. You'll enjoy looking back at this when you flip through your sketchbook!
