A watercolour to go on a card for a friend of mine. She’s just had a baby and likes pandas, so..

We have a community of pigeons living in the derelict building opposite. I want to see if I can record them all and thereby say ‘ah there is pigeon no.3’ or similar when I look out the window. And also as an exercise in drawing birds, and also just because I’ve become quite attached to them.

I can’t stop watching this Nike ad. Drawn by illustrator James Jarvis and animated by Richard Kenworthy. For true appreciation watch it fullscreen on Vimeo.
Also while wandering around on YouTube I found this collection of videos of artists’ sketchbooks from the Moleskine City Notebook Exhibition 2006. Sketchbook heaven – the one this links to, by stage designer & painter Stefano Faravelli, is kind of amazing.
Am also v impressed by this guy, Chris Dent. He is a patient man. For more of these go here.

I have got a bit into knitting. Here are a pair of leg warmers plus pom-poms…
And here is my friend for whom I made them – deciding instead to use them as arm warmers.

I saw these mini easel and canvas sets in my local art shop and had to get one. This is an oil of Lake Ullswater in Cumbria, after a recent visit at dusk.
