Happy New Year!
Christmas was a last minute rush, but yesterday, I had time to get on with some sketching! Walking in the Heddon Valley it was uplifting to see the Gorse glowing with new flowers and buds. I'm sketching a few more of its prickly stems as I have a plan for it. It's colours are on a previous notebook page (here), but instead here's a posy of Gorse and Heather on a wet and windy New Years Eve!
My Christmas presents this year included a few travel kit essentials!
A Schmincke Aquarell waterpan set! (Boxing day fun)...
Paint, Gorse and new super duper specs...
A3, A4, A5 and yes A6 Moleskines with the lovely Loona Doona...
Last but not least - new pocket secateurs - (I couldn't have picked the Gorse without them!)
Roll on 2016!
