Season's greetings and seasonal sketchbook!

A couple of sketchbook pages inspired by a couple of lovely xmas presents, 1000 artist journal pages by Dawn Devries Sokol and Taking Flight by Kelly Rae Roberts whose blog I discovered this year. Both gorgeous books and sure to provide inspiration in the coming year! Happy New Year!

Bandstand Lady



This lovely lady is a repeating motif on the bandstand in Montpelier, and I feel quite affectionate towards her - she's very enigmatic! Charcoal, Pentel brush pen and acrylic.

Crayons!



Inspired by this post by Michael Nobbs, I treated myself to a lovely yellow and green box of crayons yesterday. Just opening the box and getting that first sniff of waxy goodness, woke up the child in me that could happily sit and scribble away for hours. Best £1.70 I've spent in a while!

Hat & Hill


Yesterday, Anthony suggested a challenge, To each draw a cartoon based on the same scene from the day before. His efforts can be found here and this is mine! Also, I suspect "antigonastic" is one of those slips of the tongue that were a lot funnier at the time!
