A quieter day which started with stormy conditions and heavy rain. Later it dried out, the wind dropped but still cool so Art for fun stayed indoors and subsequently was less busy. Inktober prompt was patch so a varied approach again I continued to work on my new Corfe Castle piece, received another art supplies …
So todays prompt was crispy, so: So, a quiet start and in fact no art for fun participants this morning at all. So I drew some pieces for myself based on a recent day trip on City Cruises Solent Scene from Swanage to Poole and back. I took lots of photos on the trip of …
To put art earnings in context I joined Purbeck Artisan Yard in March 2018, 13 months into my new job as an artist so my work would be available all year round. I left the Yard in October 2020 as my commitment to having a shop in Swanage meant I had to balance up relative …
Today’s prompt was spark so I went with a fireworks related piece. Today I set the challenge on my #goodmornning from #swanage Instagram post to try and beat 16 participants in a day for Art for Fun – by the end of the day – 24!!!! So over four days in this half term holiday …

Splat was the prompt and a Roy Liechtenstein type inspiration – short post as a second one about Art for fun too.
So a week to go of drawings. Inktober has been a nice prompt to talk about ideas for drawing on a regular basis. Today’s prompt is extinct so I Google some examples not including the dodo. Other than that a local seafront walk watching the scenery and ordering items for customers for art for fun …
So Inktober day 23 and the prompt was ‘leak’. I drew my piece today while he first three art for fun participants were drawing at the shop this morning. So a great day at the shop, this morning I started with 75 people having drawn as part of Art for fun since he shop opened …
