Everyday in May 16

Here's the updated version, as someone who doesn't always follow recipes it is a favourite for me.
It can be a roast vegetable tart, filo pastry pie or adapted for lasagne/cannelloni
.....best done whilst sipping a chilled glass of white wine

Everyday in May 4

The prompt today was draw a bottle/ jar of herbs or spices, but rules are meant to be broken/bent a little, aren't they?
I've been looking for an excuse to draw this Indian spice box for many years. As tomorrow is draw something hot, it has the dried chilli peppers.... I'll be painting them if I have time.

Everyday in May 3

Draw a curtain...........curtains, blowing around on a hot but thankfully breezy day

Everyday in May 2

Draw a nearby tree........

A nearby tree, well bamboo, an extremely tall grass. I wanted to sketch a nearby papaya tree but had to finish this today, ready for a charity fundraiser for Nepal tonight. Apologies for the photo from my phone, A3 size on watercolour paper.

Orchids

more flowers, not trashed by the cat.....
too large to scan, maybe it is time to invest in an A3 scanner
32 x 41 cm watercolour





















Hibiscus

....work stopped due to the cat sitting on the paper and adding extra texture to the watercolour paper.
 Note to self, cover/remove all paintings when leaving the room!
