A Long View





I suppose drawing these mundane everyday scenes of home will be a record and witness to this time of coronavirus - I don't exactly find my messy sitting room inspiring (my crochet circles, to be made into something...a blanket? and evidence of our much missed granddaughter, who lives tantalisingly nearby but we can't visit) although once you get going, it's absorbing. Still feeling lucky to be able to fill so much time so happily and busily. In fact I'm taking on too many art challenges at the moment, our Joburg Sketchers group, my local studio group, and an online painting course - somehow I must pull them together into one more focused aim. It's feeling a bit too much like hard work right now!

I am SO SO happy to have you blogging again. Sorry I haven't been commenting. I know when I blog, I love hearing from folks now and then and know that "someone is out there". I've been a big big fan for a long time. And here we all are sketching our living rooms! But it is fun!
