This weekend I’ve started a new #painting and I’m so excited about it. I’m still working on the background so here are some of the sketches of the dogs that will be the stars.

Attended a walk and draw last weekend run by a local gallery and spent time working on continuous line drawings. This happened to coincide with kiddo looking at sculptures this week, so we ended up making continuous line drawings with wire.

Continuous line drawings of primrose, bay and celandine in black ink on white cartridge paper. A length of wire twisted to look like a continuous line drawing of a celandine flower.

Taking consistent photos of my work has been a real struggle. This house has really poor natural light but taking pictures in front of an open door is a game changer.
Before and after.
