I went to a concert featuring the choir that Husb is in, Cor Aderyn Du, at the beautiful Llangiwg Church on Barley Hill above Rhydyfro. I sat in the pews and sketched a bit. It was a lovely sunny evening and the sun streamed through the magnificent modern stained glass window.

Sketchbook Archives: 67
Back to Autumn 2016 and some random sketches that I did out and about. I really should do more.

Husb and I went to a barbecue at a lovely neighbour’s house yesterday evening: the weather was warm and gentle; the company lovely and cheerful; and there were many musicians making music. I sat quietly in a corner and sketched a bit while people listened to the music.

A Tiny Canvas
