A flick through of my summer - autumn sketch book

Road with trees on either side, leaves are starting to turn colours

The start of the Autumn colours, Kelvingrove Glasgow

Thanks, it’s probably a similar structure

A wee break from the studio for some autumn inspiration ended up painting some waves instead

Watercolour of a bakery interior, front has display cabinet with lots of items like flour, bottles, jars and baked goods people are working in the background

For me, without notes they overwhelm the picture and breaking the frame is slightly too much - great painting

Watercolour of an old building with a large mast on it (it’s a yacht club) with a flag flying from it.

Little sun break from studio to paint the Gourock yacht club

Thank you, it was quiet (ish) a few folk did pop by to have a look but were pretty good about it

A window of a bakery with shelves filled with croissants, buns, cakes a tenement building is also in the reflection

looks great, dovetail joints look so difficult to doo

I always really liked seeing your art, it felt like a really unique vision and your drawing skills are on point. Anyway just some friendly encouragement.

Ha, though saying that I really wanted to go out painting today (had lots of studio work, sigh)

Watercolour of a counter with lots of different donuts with wooden panels and orange details

These are all so good

Thanks Caro, always time for a good coffee!

lol - I bet Monet dropped his painting onto the beach (it happens!)

Thank you. Washes dry okay, it’s more the wind blowing my easel and sketchbook, it was weighed down by that yellow bag filled with rocks

Thank you
