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.

Ink Sketch of 12C Church Cambridge

Another first... I sat on a wall in Cambridge on a Saturday afternoon in August and drew this church. I love it - it's one of the earliest churches extant in the city and for the first time I used my sketchbook as an aide to composing the picture and getting the basic relationships right - or more or less right. I think the tower on the left is a bit thin in relationship to the rest. I did it in ink at the scene and then added the watercolour later - then I realised the ink wasn't waterproof - doh!

Hi Anna, I love this drawing. I found you through the EDM group, it's lovely to find another UK member.
