Well…next time I’m out drawing the VERY SAME street of heritage rat-action and pedigree, I’ll look out for Carbonara & Ratticus. Meanwhile, I’ll bring treats and see if I can persuade a chum out of the ratty flume #Coalfields #Art #Fife
Some sketches of streets in a Scottish village in Fife, with 17th century buildings.

Happy Monday…some light and colour from last week to brighten up the current gloom! I’m really not ready for the sun to be gone yet #scotland
Rainbows on a wall, refracted sunlight through glass. A St. Brìdghe’s cross of rushes is on the wall. A bough of Rowan in autumn, red leaves, backlit by the sun. Deep matron leaves of an Oxalis plant, with the light shining through them. Black grapes and reddening vine leaves, with sun shining on them.
