Kato sat next to the big vase of amaryllis which is on the floor...

Life drawing
Still tidying the studio storage, I also didn't remember these - from a small sketchbook of very quick, watercolour sketches from life. Probably around 1998!
All are watercolour or pencil in watercolour in small, wire-bound watercolour sketchbook.

New sketchbook, early drawing
New sketchbook (square pages this time), and I've already spilt tea on it! Still very cold here, and I'm still getting pleasure out of quick mark making and the landscape close by.

Snowy landscape
The country has come to a standstill with the snow and ice, but round here, it's quiet and beautiful. (The first drawing's got a blot from the previous page). Mistaken documentation: I did these yesterday as the sun was setting, but when I was dating them this morning, put in today's date...

This one's the view from my upstairs window this afternoon.

Eduardo
Happy birthday Eduardo! For his big birthday, Eduardo's wife asked his sketchbook buddies to send a page with a drawing to paste into a special birthday sketchbook - what a great idea! Here's my contribution.
Ink pen, brush marker and watercolour on untitled sketchbook page, torn out and sent for Eduardo's birthday present.
Earlier this year, I was pleased to have been invited to write an essay for the publication of Eduardo's sketchbook from the time he spent on Cape Verde. It's just seen the light of day in Lisbon :)
English gentleman in the snow
Togged out in his Barbour, Kato is a proper English country gentleman.
Cold snap
I came home a day earlier than planned from London because there was Weather. Walking Kato today, there were beautiful views ahead, and underfoot.

Grey day, grey city.
Whereas our nearest town, Stamford (5 miles away) is beautiful and filled with green spaces and Georgian stone architecture, our nearest city - Peterborough - is quite grim and grey, filled with lots of shops and malls that lose their allure to me after about five minutes of enthusiasm at the possible benefits of shopping in a city. There's a wonderful cathedral, though, and I did these drawings at the point where the cathedral close meets the shopping precinct.

Hot, clear day in Jaffa
I still have so much material I'd like to use in my photographs from Israel, but will stop mining this source when I come to the end of this sketchbook...

Bed swap
Some blue watercolour paint bled into the face from another page in the sketchbook...
