Winter evenings spent drawing from my drawings and

Winter evenings spent drawing from my drawings and dreaming about boats...
I'm continuing to go through last year's sketchbook and pick spreads I'd like to explore more and redraw. It gives me a chance to see those places again, as I find I tend to remember more about the experience if I've captured it in my sketchbook. This boat was drawn on the 14th June, the day before my birthday and I remember it being a bright, sunny day. I also remember speaking to a couple of guys who were off on a kayaking adventure around the Lizard peninsula departing from Mullion Cove. I was using my @lyra_feelcreative
Watersoluble crayons for the first time and enjoyed the sensation of scribbling with them on the page.

Had the pleasure of illustrating this sweet thatch cottage for a recent commission.
Some of you may remember it from last year's #2020postcardproject, I originally drew it around February. It's located at Porthoustock a mile or so from St. Keverne and a stone's throw from the shore. It's been nice to revisit the postcard again and this time take a bit more time to draw it and include more of the cottage and surrounding landscape. Swipe to see the original postcard too and spot the style change!

Taking advantage of time indoors to go through last year's sketchbook and draw from my favourites. The original image was drawn last year in July and features a few of the boats lined up on the shores of Cadgwith Cove. I love the colours and the textures. Boats I discovered are also a favourite subject to draw, so expect more pictures of these beauties.
