Spring 2018
Spring 2018
My maternity leave ended in February. I went back to work and also picked up drawing again. I felt rejuvenated, in time for Spring.

Summertown in first snow

SBS daily challenge: Last

Fineliner
This was really my hand holding the washing up liquid and really tricky drawing while holding this!
Ashley Burgess
30 Mar 2018
Sailor Fude pen
She was in real life much more beautiful! But I think I may have captured her essence. These sketches were also done directly in pen without pencil first, hence the occasional mistakes like that stroke on her forhead!

Pencil
Sketching on television (without pausing) so I could multitask watching telly with drawing.
Caroline Stevenson

Sailor Fude pen
Caroline is really much prettier. She’s been very supportive of my sketching but I made her wonky. Sorry!
Peter in Kiri Same ink

Watercolour and Kiri Same ink
Quick sketch of Peter to try this beautiful ink and new brush. I love this ink but it’s not waterproof.
