Yes, I now realise that yesterday I posted it as day eight for the second day running. So a dry forecast and high UV, prepared with sun cream and sat in the shade, unfortunately the breeze meant I got a bit cold. A new sign to go outside to give more information, maybe a paragraph …
A misty start and a forecast for rain possibly later. I only had one visitor before midday – Pamela from Swanage, we had a good chat and hot drink and she also walked out to the of the Tout and back and was able to report back about limited views. Numbers seemed to be settling …
The forecast was sunshine all day so careful sitting in the shade would be needed to avoid getting too much sun. I started the studio day drawing the view from our drive towards the field that lies in front of us, this will hopefully develop into an A3 pen and ink piece. I drew for …
Better weather today but so much quieter and hardly any walkers passing for most of the day. The sun came out consistently from 3 onwards. In the morning a family friend Suzanne dropped by and then two walkers, one from Australia and the other a DAW (Dorset Art Weeks) artist popped in. The day was …
A drier forecast but the steady breeze meant it never fully cleared up here. Some sun, but sea mist kept intervening. 26 visitors today so up to 228 total. A mix of walking family groups, friends and locals. Today saw some more activity at the art table and I decided it was too windy for …
The weather turned… my first visitors this morning were Becky and friend with their children who all produced artcards and enthusiastically tucked into the biscuits on offer. They came while the weather was windy but dry. Not long after they departed (but hopefully after they were back in the car) the weather moved in, misty …
Yesterday I apologise to my morning visitors whose artcards I failed to post as photographed on another device so let’s right that first. Olly who visited on Sunday wanted to set a pose for my drawing mannequin – proof that I haven’t changed it yet, nor has anyone else. So Tuesday, the bank holiday has …
So, after I posted yesterday one of my friends who visited posted about his visit on Facebook and I have thanked him already but felt very humbled to be honest. So a new day, the forecast overcast and maybe sunny spells but a stronger westerly breeze. The morning was very quiet until a family group …
A day of changeable weather and lots of friends. We started the day with cloudy overcast and a fresh breeze when Dave Furmage our Purbeck morning bike cycle mechanic dropped by for a coffee, chat and visit. Closely followed by two other couples we know and some that we don’t. The weather started to pick …
Today the art weeks started for real. Lots of visitors, many going past for walks and not even aware of the art weeks so introduced the idea to them. More framing this morning and after a few visitors remembered labelling and prices on work so made labels for all pieces so far. Visitors came from …
