Attractive little cottage, nicely drawn Mia.

Well sketched Mia. The cottage, fence and trees are nicely positioned on the paper.

Lovely sketch, Mia, and I am so glad you are managing to carry on with your art even although it must be difficult at the moment. I like the composition of this one and the super fresh feel.

A gorgeous piece, Mia! It's beautifully drawn and toned, and there's a lovely spontaneous air and so much life and vibrancy in the piece. So glad you're back, I've missed your postings!

Super sketch Mia, I usually use a waterproof ink pen but the tones you have produced with the water are very effective. Glad you are posting again, look forward to seeing more.

Great sketch - would love to see a painted version - are you going to attempt one?

Mia - about to post my interpretation of this lovely sketch

Posted by Michael Edwards on Wed 26 Mar 07:52:27

We have all I'm sure missed your work in the gallery and wish you a speedy recovery. I love this sketch and have also used Stabile Point 88 pens . . . .which are available in our local supermarket! They are so easy to use and blend so well with a damp brush. Happy sketching.

Thank you very much, Roger, for your good wishes and nice comment. Yes, I enjoyed using the Point 88, it's a pitty that they are not lightfast.

Another of my Staedler point 88 washed sketches. The waterbrush is very handy when you are limited in your working space (a sofa and a little table next to it). All comments welcome :) Mia
