Books and Frangipani

I found this frangipani on the path on my way back from a swim.
Got home and heard the sad news about Iain Banks.
Here's a few of our well read novels. Thanks Mr Banks!

Everyday in May 31 houseplant

The last challenge, quickly done as it's 32 degrees and sunny and I'm off for a swim....after doing some more washing.

Here's our very tall yukka (?) Most of the plants are outside.
Think I've learnt how to loosen up and sketch (did this more with my brush rather than a pencil) and have more fun this year, but looking forward to getting back to watercolour paper and the inevitable food.....





Everyday in May 30 closet

I don't actually own a wardrobe, just a hanging rail and a curtain.......

Everyday in May 27 Sticky

Draw something sticky.
I walked to the village today in search of stickiness. The weather was humid and sticky
These are a few things I found.Time is short but want to go back to this theme...I love drawing food.

Everyday in May 24 laugh

Today's challenge...draw something that makes you laugh.......hastily done.
Comedy of the week download from the BBC, I  listen to on the ferry and MTR. The frozen prawn image stuck in my mind (I decided to put my phone in there,not part of the comedy)It was inspired by Alun Cochrane's Fun House The Living Room  not going to explain it you'd have to listen....wish I'd had more time to play.(Tried to do a coat hanger print but that didn't work)



Everyday in May 23 summer joy

Everyday in May 20 wine

Draw your favourite drink. I couldn't decide between this or coffee.
I sat on the balcony at sundown, a great time to have a chilled glass of wine after a long busy day.
I started to sketch as a big thunderstorm approached so I had to retreat inside.
The thunderstorm was quite dramatic and right over Lamma.





















....storm in a wine glass.
