Thank you. Is great to do this again - even if less people seem to do it now. But maybe they are all still on X. I’ve enjoyed the way your work breathes the natural world.

Thank you. And thank you for the likes and reposts. I’ve enjoyed seeing your drawings too - lots of varied media. Love a square sketchbook.

Day 5 #DrawingAugust #drawingaugust2026 If I keep doing 3 pages at once the sketchbook won't last the month 🙃 this is in pencil and neocolours over acrylic.

#drawingaugust 1/31 Here we go for 2026! Looking forward to seeing everyone’s work. As in the last few years, drawings I make are from a remembered moment seen or experienced on the day. (approx A5, Neocolor II water-soluble wax crayons on mixed media paper)

Ah Vivienne you say such lovely things! These were all (cept day 1 ) 17 x 22 cm so not too small. Good size for the wax pastels; any larger would have me working all night! The composition is important - I like creating ambiguities. Hope you’re enjoying your own art progress.

Thank you for your kind comments. It’s quite a sweat to keep going but so worth while. Find myself experimenting and finding out what I want to say.

… and here’s the initial under drawing - brush pen on tinted paper with the beginnings of Caran D’Ache Neocolor II wax pastel.
