Husb and I spent the whole day at the Pompidou Centre. What an amazing place. We sat awhile on one of the roof terraces, looking at the views over the rooftops and I had a bit of a scribble. I wanted to draw the pigeons but the statues and the building sort of took over. There is a shallow pond on the roof and the pigeons share it with the statues.
Drawn into my cloth bound sketchbook with Faber Castell Pitt Drawing pens and a touch of water colour. I prepared the sketchbook first by sticking in some brown parcel paper with a Pritt stick.
scribblah 
I would love to see you working with some lovely hand made papers instead of the brown paper. Gosh am I becoming middle-class 😉
haha I have handmade papers but I find them inhibiting beause they’re expensive and I don’t want to ruin them. Working onto brown wrapping paper means I’m not bothered if I waste it.
You are never wasting if you are creating 🙂
Just imaging the statues having a splash around when no-one is looking and then freezing when somebody comes. Did you ever play Statues when you were at school?
Or were they Angels that you had to stare at to stop them moving??!
AAAARRRRGGGHHH now I’m scared!
ah yes LOL. I bet the pigeons are really still when no-one’s looking
