On Draw With Me we did some speed dating of flowers, getting through the whole alphabet in about an hour.

Downton Abbey
Rainy morning, a good opportunity to catch up on this week’s Draw With Me, where the theme was Downton Abbey (kinda). I may have seen part of a single episode of the show long ago, but I really know nothing except that it’s about aristocratic Brits and stars Maggie Smith. The characters depicted here are just random Edwardian people. I’m glad we don’t have to dress like that anymore. Especially glad I don’t have to wear a pizza on my head.
dead poets
More sketchy hijinks with the Draw With Me gang. It was Poet’s Day, so we drew dead ones.
crikey
This week on Draw With Me we went Down Under. As I don’t think I’ll be getting there in person this year, it was fun to sketch a bunch of Aussie icons.
stamp with me
Postage stamps are tiny works of art that represent a moment in time and culture. What a pity that they are used so rarely anymore. Even I, inveterate maker and sender of cards and letters, have greatly reduced my use of stamps this year. Instead, a phone call on a birthday has felt sufficient — but is it really? I want to get back to my practice of sending snail mail. I can’t keep using the fire as a mental excuse.
drawing from memory
This is a challenge I should attempt more often. I’m sure it’s good for my brain.
Alligator mississippiensis
It’s always fun to spend an hour drawing with Danny, JJ, and the DWM gang. This week we drew alligators; I chose graphite and watercolour as my media.
