Meadow Flower
60x75x25mm
Photograph of a ceramic sculpture of a flower. The clay is black and slightly glossy standing on wood backdrops. Flower is angular and brutalist I think?

Afternoon Treat.
🖼️ Visitors, Kyoko Imazu.
Painting of large brown and white cat and three smaller birds against a dark, plain background. One bird with light brown and white plumage is perched on the cat's back. It holds a small red flower in its beak. Another grey-brown bird is on the surface to the left of the cat, head down as if pecking at something. A third, smaller bird with dark blue and white markings stands to the right of the cat.

Fantastic model for online class with Royal Drawing School. I tend to panic when the tutor says you have 10 minutes with this pose! So decided to slow down & stick to one material - pencil. Meant i was more relaxed but got less down on the paper!

Finally finished this #collage, inspired by auriculas. It's taken me weeks to finish it, I was suprised that the 1st drawing I did of this plant was back in June! I do seem to 'sit' with drawings, ideas, developmemts & edits for quite a while before finishing anything!
