scribbles during session with @London Drawing at Mindful Still life drawing today 01/03/2021 The circles are in the form of nests
Using my twisted dried found as subject for observing mindfully – first attempt with this group and was very enjoyable, even had a short Yoga Meditation session before we started drawing.
Spiral lines in nature – dried sunflower head – finding rows of sees and then the counterclockwise rows of seeds
Soon it will be Autumn in South Africa – long afternoon shadows on wall of tree next to wall
Thinking about scale – small found object drawn bigger and thinking about a composition of such an upscale work – watercolour pencil and watercolour paint drawing on paper. I am inspired by Bouke de Vries and love ceramics and value of beautiful objects, what to do when they are ‘damaged’ – why hide it?
not quite finding the nest form with my lines

Considering mark making as warm up exercises before drawing. Drawing is becoming an act of doing, of watching and doing – inviting to look closer.
