Sketchbook

Since starting the pastel drawings my work has been completely taken over by this linear shape that appeared by just letting my hand do what it naturally felt like doing.

I started working in a small moleskin sketchbook with pencil and graphite.

This more deliberate line lacked some of the spontaneity of the pastel drawing so I closed my eyes and did some blind drawings.

Starting to add colour, hopefully keeping the spontaneity of the blind drawings.

The Last Gasp of Winter

The Last of the Melting Snow

In the studio today painting and listening to music, heard this song, The Last of the Melting Snow by The Leisure Society. I thought it was such a beautiful gentle song, hope you enjoy it.
