Recent Sketches

Here are a few recent sketches taken from the sketchbook. I have been so busy lately with the tapestry blog that I haven't posted here in a while but the sketching habit is still strong.

This is a quick little sketch of Purlie cat and Laddie done with a Rotring Art pen and some Pilot fountain pens.

My running shoe, also with the Rotring.

Here is one of Mack with his iPad. He is a good stand in for Santa this time of year. it was done with a new Japanese desk fountain pen with carbon ink.


















A little sketch of a new Lamy Rollerball done with the Rotring and some Derwent colored pencils.

 Here is a sketch of Mack and Josh putting up walls in the new studio we have been working on and another of Josh taking a well earned break.  This was drawn with an oil based pencil with some colored pencil accents and the one of Mack and Josh is with the super fine carbon ink fountain pen.

A little pine cone study with the same carbon ink pen.

This most the most recent sketch, a study of a small shell.

I am trying to get back in shape for some location sketching!
