Fortitude Valley, Brisbane, Australia. Sixes and Sevens tavern. Saturday morning. It is winter and I am getting sunburnt on the back of my neck standing in the median drawing this sketch - and I realise that I am so bad with keeping track of the date that it is actually Saturday 22 08 15 - don't ask me why I thought it was 28 08 15? I must have been some place else.
This was done for a ZOOM presentation for college & high school students interested in pursuing a career in Architecture. An wanted to encourage the digital generation about the importance of the skill of sketching as a way to communicate visually. An used the photo as a slide in my presentation.
Evening sketch, a few days later, same square, a view on the right, a very damp evening weather. Still, managed to stay outside.
Croquis du soir,, quelques jours ont passé, même place (de la Canourgue), autre vue. Une heure dans une atmosphère très humide, à la limite de la pluie. J'ai quand même réussi à rester en terrasse.
The dark lines of light pouring of the crying sky
On the shoulders of the artist.
Like the lines streaming from her dark pencil
Onto the light paper
While creating dark and running images of
A cloudy day on the sea.
Like the lines of our lives dropping slowly from the
Artists trained hand into the complex drawing
Of reality mixed with imagination so that we cannot
Tell them apart, just like we
Cannot separate the waves.
What is reality if not
A sketch of light?
a collection of sketches on napkins borrowed from the cafe at the Sydney Museum of Contemporary Art - unfortunately when they are scanned they lose all the wrinkles and texture.
Reeds in Lough Abisdealy, Lissard Estate in Skibbereen.This is part of a series I shot a few years ago. I took a look at some of the files last week to try and add to the series. To make these images I waded out into the lake composed and then waited for ripples to die down before shooting.
All of the images were taken on foggy or soft days with no wind.....
Last year, Don and I decided to close our business and sell the building at the end of 2024. Once the retirement word was out, we got a quick offer and started cleaning.
Don is a collector, like everyone else in his family, and an amount of junk, oops sorry, collectables, had piled up in storage at the office. There were some things he didn't want to get rid of, but he didn't want to keep them either. So I suggested that I photograph those items in still life fashion.
The pitcher and key were part of the "must go" pile of stuff. I started doing sketching shots with my iPhone thinking that once I got the composition right, I would use my camera. But I tend to be slower than molasses running uphill in winter, while there is no dust on Don. So when I finally got around to taking the still life with the camera, I discovered that the pitcher was gone and the orange presumably eaten.
This is one of two sketching shots of my project, but I didn't take one of the composition I most liked.
I do, however, still have the key...

The color blue can help express one's feelings, or be felt in the stylings of a particular type of music. It can be seen when looking deep into someone's eyes, or among the many colors of the rainbow... Blue exists in a variety of different things, and takes on a variety of meanings.
The task of this week's Macro Monday assignment was to show a small object that is mostly (or prominently features) the color blue. My take on this particular subject "led" me (ok, pun intended) to the blue pencil... Not only does the subject itself feature the color blue, but by definition the term "blue pencil" is also used to express the work done by an editor:
"If a person goes over a piece of writing with a blue pencil, they remove or change some of the words to improve it or make it acceptable" -- Cambridge Dictionary. I always thought that job was best handled by a red pencil, but guess that blue is a pretty versatile color.
HMM, and have a great week!
