This blog is about finding time... time to draw and share. I live in London and work in publishing but also teach mindfulness-based stress reduction to general public groups. I also love writing - fiction and poetry - knitting, sewing, anything which involves making something. I used to do loads of drawing all the way through school but since then it's been harder and very much in fits and starts. I'm back into it now and that feels good.

Drawings...



I love sitting down for an hour or more and just getting immersed in a drawing. The trouble is finding several hours is always a challenge. Still, I have managed it the last couple of weekends so here's the first one - the gate. I got tired by the time I did the ground so the perspective is a bit out... I did this sitting in the communal gardens - I felt very conspicuous but after a bit of nosing out the windows everyone left me alone.

This is lovely. Your graphite work has nice dimension and soft even shading! I am just beginning to experiment more with graphite and do find it quite relaxing. We are hot in SoCal too! How does 107 degrees sound! We've had some humidity, but I know your humidity is much higher than ours!
