…..despite the icy temperatures yesterday I ventured down to lake

I never tire of seeing the swans. Yesterday I brought with me the telephoto lens that fits onto my iPhone. I’m not sure I really needed it but I wanted to get as close as possible without scaring them off.

Circles of Flowers – Day 69

….moving right along with my 365 Days of Art

Well after cutting out all those circles earlier in the week, it turns out that I didn’t need them for Carla’s assignment on Friday. So I took some of them and layered them on top of each other and then randomly glued some of them into my sketch book. Then the fun began as I added marks and colour to create imaginary flowers.

It’s a very dreary time of year. This year has been particularly bad with very cold temperatures, well below the norm for this time of year. Consequently there are no budding or flowering trees to brighten up my page for Sunday Trees. Hopefully this will change soon.

Adding Some Colour – Day 67

……experimenting with watercolour

Sometimes I’m not sure whether I should add colour to my sketches or not. This evening I took a chance and put some colour into my daffodils. Do you have a preference? Leave the sketch as is or add colour? I’m thinking of adding colour to the bouquet that I did here.
