Drawing at the Market

I met my friend Susan at the Covent Garden Market on Thursday morning before work. I normally do not choose to draw flowers, but the colourful arrangement of Esthers Flowers and Gifts, just inside the Talbot Street entrance was so cheerful, I had to. The structure was very architectural. The containers were so geometric. Flowers were the minor part of sketch.

Sketching the white stuff

Can't remember last time I spent time sketching the white stuff. The walk to work by the Thames River. No plein air this time of year. Snapped some photos while walking to work and did some quick sketches.

Beautiful, but slow

Just got back from golfing in Hilton Head, SC. Great vacation. Weather could have been a wee bit warmer the first couple of days, but we managed to golf six rounds in six days. My favourite course was Crescent Pointe Golf Club. We were only able to get afternoon tee times and the problem with that was.... it was so slow!! The bright side of that was... I was able to do lots of sketching while we played. Attached is three pages of my sketch book, all completely while playing golf.

Sketching in November

Sketching on location in November, you never know what kind of weather you will get. Planned this a week ago and got lucky with the weather. This is at Christies Farm. Tree are pretty bare and most of the fall colour is now on the ground.... but oh so nice to be outside drawing. The plan is to continue to go out though the winter months. Hopefully the weather co-operates for next Sunday.
