Life Drawing Monday

Enjoyed another life drawing class this week, my second one since doing them way back on my foundation course in Norwich in '99-'00. Tried some different materials for the first time – ink, watercolours and some coloured pencils. All good fun, roll on next week!




Everyday objects (watercolour practice!)

Getting to grips with watercolours after not really using them, ever. Really like the way you can get colour down so quick and breath life into simple line drawings... will keep going, so watch this space!




Drawing during a wedding reception party!

Made these last night whilst at a friends wedding party.







Urban Sketchers East London Sketchcrawl

Met up with these guys midday at Bethnal Green to experience my first 'sketchcrawl'. Was a really inspiring day and it was great to meet like minded sketchers! Including Ren (Lion Ren) who I did some sketching with on Columbia Road, he knocked up this drawing of me in no time - very impressive! The area we walked around was full of life, with street markets, really old pubs and lovely shopfronts - which all proved very sketch-worthy. I look forward to the next meet up.
