Winter Inspiration

20-11-11a, a photo by Anita Davies on Flickr.

More sketches using magazines as references. Trying hard to find resources to ignite the inspiration now that Winter has set in here in the Fens...I miss getting out and about with my sketchbook and find myself wondering WHAT to sketch on a regular basis now. I find magazines and DVD's are a great help and, of course, there is always room for a self portrait series seeing as I am wherever I may be!

This craft paper was a nighmare to sketch on! It had a wax surface that did not like ink or watercolour at all!

On our third day together, I drove Joan into Huntingdon for lunch at Hartfod Mill; a pub/restaurant situated along the river. The weather was glorious again, so we found a seat outside and started sketching while we waited for our order.
