Cello

Had a go at doing a pastel drawing of Shiv's cello. Not too happy with the result - not enough reflected light.

Normandy

Few pages from my sketchbook in Normandy - last year.

Prague

Here are a couple of paintings done from photos taken in Prague.

Weekend painting course

Had a fab day of painting on the course, ran by Paul Priestly, kindly bought for me by Barbara for Christmas.

Jig

Painting course was relegated to the pottery/workshop room tonight. I took a few of my own oddments from home to do a still life but once I saw some of the machines there, I couldn't resist and had fun sketching one of those instead!

Alwyn Crawshaw

Forgot to take my Cromwell's Castle painting to painting class. John gave me an Alwyn Crawshaw book but I hate painting from other people's paintings so after a really poor attempt to do so, I did a quick doodle of the author himself.

Cromwell's Castle

Start of watercolour. Copied from photo from a few years ago when Jacqui and Gareth met up with me and the boys on Bryher. Jacqui actually waded across from Tresco!
