Mark Making
The house feels empty now my lodger has departed. Humph. I wasn’t feeling arty at all today, but we started returning things to their usual places so that I can jump back in tomorrow with my familiar set up. I did do a bit of mark-making in my Seawhite journal, on a page that already…

Post Election Blues
We got the Tories out. Yay! Labour won, if you don’t look too closely at the details, but we think Starmer is a disaster in waiting. Scotland gave the SNP a bloody nose, that wasn’t unexpected, but was somewhat bloodied than expected. Frustrating and disappointing. Lots of bigots lost seats, but England returned some fash,…

Five Minute Figure
This is a challenging reference, and I’ll probably give it a few more attempts, but this is today’s sketch. Might get some painting done tomorrow. Til the morn, Suzanne 136/200

For The Love of Murph
A worrying few days as the senior pooch we have been looking after started refusing food, including the ham wrapped meds he needs to take. I am not kidding, I did barely anything on Saturday other than sit and watch him breathing, praying that I wasn’t going to be faced with a horrible situation. I…

Daily Drawing
When I was drawing this character a spider crawled out from the spiral binding onto the page, and I had to peel myself off the ceiling. I love spiders, but sometimes they test me, lol. Til the morn, Suzanne 132/200

Draw It and Spray It
I hate that in this election I have so little hope, and that my community is under attack, and being used as a political football. I despise liars, and I especially despise sanctimonious, holier than thou, religious ones, especially when their vicious little games are so self-serving. ugh Today started out lovely, but thanks to…

Deer Morning
A morning walk in the cool, dampness with my senior lodger was a lovely way to start a new day. We were surprised by a Roe Deer, who was just as surprised by us, and I knew it would be a better day. The deer was in a place it isn’t supposed to be, as…

Unsettled
I am not settling in to my temporary art space at all, so I’m giving myself space to just do a sketch in my A5 sketchbook as my daily art until I get into a groove. My lodger lurcher is much more important, especially since he’s a senior boy, and you never know if this…
