Sunshine
Finally our little seed that we got at @holdfastbeachschool last summer has bloomed! Fingers crossed for more sunny flowers next year!

Birthday Flowers
Actually managed to get a couple of sessions of drawing in this week and put my wonderful new @carandache supracolor pencils to the test, despite it being bonkers hot and the baby barely sleeping! Decided to have a go at sketching some of the beautiful flowers I was very kindly given for my birthday. Always takes longer than I expect!

Post Paddle Nap. Another moment of quiet. Got about 30mins ish this time (minus the interruptions from the toddler). Feel like if I keep going I might warn myself some better pencils!

Sleeping in the Garden. Have been trying to get back into sketching again. Grabbing what little time I can here and there and also trying not to get hung up on what materials I have to hand. Following advice of @goodshipillo to just draw what I can see. Haven’t got any further than the garden as yet 😂. Feels good to be doing it though!

Work in progress - Christmas card
Interpretation of one of the nativity scenes, seen at the wonderful exhibition of nativities from around the world currently on display at Borden Church. The collection belongs to presenter Libby Purves who loans it out to hire money for charity - this year @thechildrenssociety
