Sketching

My art group meets every Thursday night, in each others houses, as we seemed to be descending into a drinking group, we decided that each week the host would put together a still life that we would sketch.IMG_7256

This turned out to be a brilliant idea as we all made an effort, This is my idea of the first still life, I used a black pen to sketch with and put in the colours later, from memory.

  1. I love this, Phil, and what a great idea to sketch while you are together. It would be nice to have someone set up the still life each week.

  2. It's a beautiful sketch, but the journaler in me is aching to write something on the white space on the right. ;-)

  3. Super sketching Phil. It's what I should be doing (sketching not dri...actually, nothing wrong with a little tipple every now and then lol).
    And it looks great the way you have done it across the pages.

  8. Great sketch and a wonderful idea to keep your group on track. Mind you, you need to find time for a drink as well - sketching is thirsty work!
