Here are some people drawings from way back in June 2014, mostly in pen into a sketchbook but the last one is a digital scribble on my old Samsung Note 8 tablet, using a free Markers app. I did a bit of travelling that month, to London and Vienna. I used to travel a lotContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 45”

#Caturday Archives: 26
Here’s a drawing from June 2014, when Husb and I visited the Belvedere Gallery in Vienna. I saw this wonderful sculpture of a cat by Franz Barwig and scribbled it.
One I Did Earlier
Feeling a bit poorly today, might have caught the family stomach bug so I haven’t done any drawings so here’s one I did earlier, a couple of weeks ago when Husb and I were in Vienna. We were exploring and stopped to rest a while under a scented tree, a tilia I think, in aContinue reading “One I Did Earlier”
Elderflower Evening
Husb and I have been out this picking elderflowers to make cordial. It’s an annual ritual and makes the house smell lovely. It’s been a fine evening and a lovely way to spend a few hours. I did this sketch a couple of days ago in the Belvedere Gallery in Vienna. It already seems likeContinue reading “Elderflower Evening”

The brushwork is so fluid and he creates light and dark and the flow of theContinue reading “Viennese Stroll And A Bit More Egon”

Yesterday we went to the Upper Belvedere Gallery in Vienna to take in the permanent collection of Secession, Expressionist and Impressionist art. Marvellous. I drew this sculpture of a pantherContinue reading “The Black Panther”
Drawing Egon
Yesterday in Vienna Husb and I spent most of the day in The Leopold Museum wallowing in Egon Shiele’s art. And other Secession and Expressionist artists. It was an amazing experience. Husb and I are the sort of people who upset the gallery staff by standing as close as possible to artworks to try andContinue reading “Drawing Egon”
Big Boned Blokes
Husb and I are having a few days in Vienna. It’s so easy to get to most of Europe and it’s wonderful to be able to see places that I’ve read about. First off though, I had a scribble at Heathrow, a big boned bloke sitting opposite, absorbed in his Tablet so he didn’t noticeContinue reading “Big Boned Blokes”
