Yesterday I drew in the rain with my fellow Plebeian Scribblers during the Troublemakers arts festival. It was challenging! The sketchbooks quickly got soaked and my drawing pens didn’t work so I changed to a graphite stick and that worked really well. The water on the paper turned the graphite into liquid and it flowed like a loaded brush. Nice.

For a limited period I am putting a new drawing of an ancient monument on my Artfinder gallery every day. If you’d like to check them out, please click on the image below or the Artfinder link at the top right of this page.

Well done to all you hardy lot sketching in the rain, and great results Rosie, I love the extra zing the brown paper adds , these drawings have bags of character, looks like the weather actually helped; lesson to self, no excuses!
Thanks Phil. It was a challenge!!! lol 😀 But using graphite in the wet was great. Hadn’t occurred to me before
