Welcome back Emma! I'm off to Hafan Y Mor in a week. Probably not quite as arty as visiting an island but I'm hoping to get plenty of sketching done 😊

Thank you Clair! 😊 I'm not holding out hope for doing a lot of sketching as i'll be with my son and husband, and, judging by the live cameras on Skomer, those little Puffins move fast! 😆 But i'll just be happy to be there and soak up the atmosphere, the sketching will be a bonus. I'll probably take a ton of photos and video to draw from back at the studio.

Have a wonderful trip yourself and I hope you get lots of sketchy time! x

Thanks Beth! I think I might be (slowly) improving.. Now I just need to practice lower body, more dynamic poses, expressions and hands, then I might have the people-drawing-thing nailed. It's so hard! 😆

😂😂slow the fuck down .will copy a d paste that post - it. There is this chapter in one of my favourite books ever ( Momo by M.Ende) where a street cleaner talks about how he feels at the beginning of a long neverending road he has to clean .and how he faces it. Step , sweep,breathe and another step and so on .... Will draw this man with his broom right next to the note😂😂😂 love to hear from your trip to the islands!
