Along the waterfront

I cycled along the waterfront as I do each day. The temperature  has improved enough to stop and sketch. It’s beautiful.

Urbansketching on my Instagram account

I’ve discovered that Instagram is an excellent way to publish on several social media platforms at the same time. Unfortunately Google is not included. So check out my urban sketching on Instagram.

Lunchtime watercolour

This painting took two lunchtimes to complete. I’m happy with the looseness of it,  I try all the time to let go,  it doesn’t come naturally,  I hope it does one day.

Evening sketch of Waldemarsudde

I am trying to paint and draw as much as possible right now. I sketch in the morning, I watercolour during lunch,  I paint again on the way home and best of all,  my employers want me to draw portraits full-time! I should improve with all this going on,  must be careful not to burnout. This sketch is a view of Waldemarsudde,  Stockholm.

Double lunchtime watercolour

Yes, this one took me two lunchtimes to complete. I’m just happy to start painting again. I got into a bit of a rut during the last few weeks. Too much going on, I’m looking forward to the summer months.

David Meldrum Lars Lerin Portrait Sketch

Lars Lerin

I was reading Lars Lerin’s book, “Mellan husen” last night. It’s a collection of his work from the time he was living in Lofoten. I couldn’t resist trying to do his portrait. It’s close but something is missing.

Saturday’s life drawing

I did some life drawing today, it’s the first time in a while that I’ve had time to figure draw on a Saturday. I enjoyed myself. I love the crowd at Basis, that was the venue.

Tuesday’s life drawing

I am struggling at the moment. Out of balance, too many things to do. Only one sketch worth showing from Tuesday’s life drawing session at Konstnärshuset.
