Hi everyone this weekend I went to the coast to visit family we just got back this afternoon. I had a lovely relaxing time. I didn't take my sketch book with me but found myself with time on my hands yesterday afternoon to do a bit of sketching. So did these two on some computer paper :0) The weather was so cold yesterday I found myself staring out of the window at the gum trees watching the leaves fly up everywhere so I was inspired to do this sketch :0)
This other sketch was inspired but a sculpture/ornament that my mother in law has. Very cute meer cats, it's so realistic I felt these cute little eyes on me whilst I was watching tele. I wanted to draw another 'big eyed animal' and they seemed perfect. So full of character!
Hope you're all having a great weekend. I'm hoping to do some painting this week and be a bit more productive. I'll try and get round to visit you all later!!! :0)

Oh my gosh....your sketching just continues to improve more and more. You really are finding yoursel within your art. I love both of these, but the first one is my fave! :)
Wonderful sketches...love them both!

have a lovely day.
Both really great sketches! How are you dear Nicola?

Both great sketches...not liking this little return to normal spring weather..far too cold...
Cute meercat (those eyes!) and I love your windy weather girl. I think you should do a painting of that one!
I couldn't agree more with Sophia. Your sketches have really come along. I LOVE both of these. The windy weather one is fantastic. You've really caught the energy of the wind in this one. Paint it!!!! xxx
these are both wonderful. I love how the passion of sketching will have us sketching on whatever we can find!
Such fun sketches - I love those big eyes :)

p.s. I think I've said it before, but just in case I didn't I want to let you know how much I love your butterfly header - it brings a smile to my face every time I visit!
Love both sketches, but the meerkat has to be my favorite especially since its supposed to be our warming spring here and the weather is pretty much the cold/wind you've got going in your picture. I'd embrace that in the fall, but I'm craving the warm after a long winter!
