Daily Drawing: November




 Daily drawings  from November, my favourite  is  from 28th,   2 takeaway little  sourdough cinnamon swirl buns from the 'Hot Tin' , delicious with coffee  ( I must confess I'd already had one in the morning  when meeting up with friends there ) 

 This months selection is a  mixture of observational  drawings/watercolour paintings ;   copies of drawings from ' Drawing Tuesday' expeditions; inspirational photos ( my own)  and scraps of fabrics  and stitching

Drawing Tuesday at the Petrie Museum

 After drawing in the African Gallery of British Museum  in the morning, I spent last Tuesday afternoon  drawing pots at the Petrie Museum as I have many times before! I still get overwhelmed by the amount of  objects stuffed into the cases and deciding what to draw  always takes a while. In the end it  came down to sitting at a convenient table with a chair  and drawing what was in front of me !  






UPDATE :   As  Margaret Cooter notes  in her blogpost on our visit,  such delicate drawings are difficult to photograph  well, the marks get lost on the page. I   scanned in the drawing, , increased  contrast in Photoshop and printed out a copy , drawing round the  shapes with a large Pitt  marker in sanguine.
