Happy Hogmanay!
I started the day with ten pages left to fill in this sketchbook, and ended the day with five pages left to fill, and so I’m closer to the end of the book than I thought I was going to be. Happy Hogmanay! Til the morn, Suzanne 683/700

Peachy.Keen
It’s a bit of a rubbish photo because my replacement daylight bulb didn’t arrive and this is Scotland in December so there’s barely any daylight at all. It was painted not quite by candlelight, but at least it was painted. Til the morn, Suzanne 681/700

The In-Between Times
We are in the In-between Times where no-one knows what day it is. Someone asked me “what days is bins?” and I said “Saturday. But I don’t know what that means.” Today was bins, and they were emptied, and still all is not well in the world. I wanted to write “all is well in…

Mixing Up The Art Supplies
I started the day with a small oil painting, a study in a canvas sketchbook. My subject was a still-life of two oranges, a blueberry and a banana. This is me trying to kickstart a (maybe) daily oil painting practise. I hadn’t pulled out the oils for a while, and I really enjoyed playing with…

Revisit and Remix
I spent some time flipping through this sketchbook and making notes on things that caught my eye, and then for this page I combined a few things in ways I hadn’t previously, which gave me some new ideas. Machines can’t do that. Til the morn, Suzanne 672/700

The Art of Procrastination
My To Do List is seasonally long, and so today I spent all my time painting, and that is the art of procrastination. As part of my mission to finish one of my A3 sketchbooks before the year is out, I painted these three pages. The To Do list will still be there in the…

Today’s Warm-up
Another day where I can’t share most of what I’m working on because, well, it’s December 😉 so here’s today’s warm-up sketch. Til the morn, Suzanne 668/700

Figure Drawing Filler
I can’t post most of what I worked on today because of the time of year, and things must remain secret, so the least impressive piece is the image for the blog. I was using up some paint for this sketch in my A3 sketchbook, which I would really like to have filled by the…
