This is the bench on our patio right outside our back door. It's a nice place to sit and look at the garden, and we also use it to rest and take off our boots after a walk with the dogs. The wall is actually straight, not curved. ;-) While I was sketching it was very windy and cold, and started to rain. This is August???
I'm still trying to sketch something every day, but I haven't done much that is postable because I've been spending more time on watercolours. I know they say watercolours are challenging, but for some reason I didn't think it would be quite so difficult. When I painted in the past it was acrylics, and watercolour is a completely different animal. I'm having fun though, splashing the paint around and going through various books and videos. Hopefully before too long I'll have something I like well enough to post. In the meantime, I'll keep sketching. :-)
