Staying at Home 9 – Vegetable Beds
Watercolour and ink on paper Yesterday it was both warm and cool enough to sit outside and sketch for half an hour. We haven’t had many of those and when the weather was right I have been busy gardening. The boards are there to try to keep the animals from digging. Still #uskathome in St. […]

Staying at home 6
#uskathome pen and ink My kitchen table, please don’t judge me! Not enough time today to add colour, the dog insisted on going out. from Blogger http://splynch.blogspot.com/2020/03/staying-at-home-6.html
