graphite/watercolour on Canson Aquarelle paper

Cat

A quick charcoal sketch (less than 10 minutes) on canvas, work in progress.
I found it  liberating to use charcoal after many months of watercolour.
Updates of painting to follow.
This is a sketch of one of my cats, she died last year.
The photo I used she has her mouth open so I changed it slightly, still not quite right
She has her hunting/slightly annoyed/when are you going to feed me look on her face which I saw often

Pumpkins

Baby pumpkins....

Found this didn't scan all the colour differences on the greens, now add a background or not?
Had a busy month with little time for my own drawing, but working on some commissions. Thanks for your previous comments everyone

I still have lots of work to personalise my store and decide what works but here's the Zazzle link if you want to check it out. I'm planning to put more drawings on cards. Any ideas and suggestions would be welcome. I have many ideas but not enough time.

I put the background on this picture and regretted it, faded it out with a white glaze.

Wish I'd scanned it before the background but it's always fun to experiment

Starfish

tricky dried sea critters with a pungent odour....(used in Chinese medicine)...moving on to the painted version, which I think will be easier to depict all the texture and spikes

Sushi Set

Watercolour and Chinese ink on 140lb Aquarelle paper 24cm x 32cm

 I was taken for a delicious sushi lunch at Ten Jaku, Causeway Bay last week.
The selection was a work of art.
I brought home the amaebi (prawn sushi) to draw but added the rest from a photo taken on my iPhone.
