Progress in small steps with eye and hand breaks once I got into the pebble section – differing ideas on the next step which I will work out before committing to his A3 new drawing. When seen working on this on Saturday the shocked reaction to the fact that yes I hand draw every pebble …
So, Wednesday June 1st and back at the studio for the last two days on what are my normal working days. The art weeks have started well for me, just over a week ago I was worried I wouldn’t sell enough art to cover the studio’s rent last month. Now five days on and the …
So up earlier and dropped off brochures as requested before being dropped off to open the shop this morning. I set up outside the shop as early sunniness, but it clouded over and a few raindrops that became a shower and meant cleaning away inside. This was repeated twice. I took some photos from the …
