Through this blog, I am joining Julie Oakley and others around the world, in a daily excursion, by foot or bike, stopping along the way to do a sketch.

Day 121 A beautiful starry evening, walking round the suburb. What will I see tonight? Usually I reject a few possibilities before the right one 'appears'. This was definately IT for tonight. 4 km walk
Hi Alison, your recent post to EdM reminded me to visit. I must put your link on my blog. I just wanted to say I have absolutely enjoyed browsing your blogs. So interesting and inspiring. I have been doing 4k walks every second day for 2 weeks now, since my doc said it will bring my chol down, I don't believe it will, (inherited from a long list of family sufferers), however I need to lose some weight and I have begun to enjoy it. Hopefully I will get up to your pace one day soon. I am sorry your Mum is so ill, ailing, aging parents is one of the cruelest parts of life. Keep your strenght and sketching up, I admire both in you!
This is fantastic, and I think you are very brave. I'd be worrying about what someone might think I was doing! Yes, the composition is perfect and your treatment of the 'subject' is quite sensitive really.
Day 121
Alison, I love this one! You surprise me every time.
ReplyDeleteOh dear, what if he didn't dress like this! Would you have still gone ahead and drawn him?
ReplyDeleteAgain, I like the idea of cut-off shapes.
