#drawingaugust 6/31 I’m making a drawing a day in August. Each one is from a remembered moment seen or experienced on the day. Sometimes I've worked from a photo or sketch as a prompt but often it’s a sensation or visual quality that provides the starting point.

A sketch from last weekend. Watching a cormorant trying to catch an eel. A reminder that #DrawingAugust starts today. You don't have to draw every day & it can just be a quick sketch. Just whatever you can manage. Post with the hashtag #DrawingAugust #DrawingAugust2025

#DrawingAugust #DrawingAugust2025 Coffee and sketching on the riverbank. Heard kingfishers but didn't actually see one. Heron gracefully glided by just as I was finishing.

Happy August all!⛱️🌈🌞 Thank you for following 🧡 !

The hay has just been cut. A quick sketch yesterday looking out over the meadow, watching the birds Not long until ##DrawingAugust. Who's up for joining in?

Jenny Saville at the National Portrait Gallery, London - fabulous 5 stars. The fleshy-ness of paint and the painty-ness of flesh. Seriously impressive and inspiring 😎

In 2025, if you like an artists work online, share it. I see AI generated art getting thousands of views, while hard-working creatives go unnoticed. Artists don't exist in a vacuum, creative people need the oxygen of support to find their audience. Find what you love, and shout about it. 👍❤️ #edusky
