Inside my Sketchbook




Here are some of my sketches from this week.  The first one is of my son and two nephews watching a football match on TV.  Their team was losing so you can imagine the tension and rude words!



This is a tree in town that I often sketch when I'm waiting about. While I was sketching some young kids gathered on a bench below smoking, now I know where the graffiti came from.





This last one is a real giant.  There are four of these giant soldiers guarding a large arched gateway.  So big I could only fit one side on my page and if I stood next to him my head would only come up to his feet.  The light was fading so I will have to return some other time to sketch the others.

No surprise, you have done it again - fantastic.
Lovely trees, shame about the graffiti :-(
That's is one massive giant (mind you I guess that is a giant's job - to be massive).
Super Superb Sketching!

Wonderful sketches! I especially like the figures on the couch and can only imagine the dialog taking place there!
