Drawing from a friend's holiday

 page 20 of 40 in my personal visual diary challenge.

A3 black paper

Thank you to my friend Georgie Parish for letting me draw her photo. The composition is amazing, look at the focus and the use of thirds!



I loved translating this into artwork. The lines in the building aren't completely straight, and perspective may be off a little, but overall, I love the depth I've achieved, and the bright colours elevating the iamge.


I prefer the full version to the cropped version.

Such a great photo though! Thank you Georgie!

Eddie Koiko Mabo Library

What a way to combine architecture and landscape while sitting in a bush setting!


Today's drawing was so fulfilling. I also made a time lapse video (see it on my Tik Tok @bizarrequilter).

After school drop off I went for a walk through the local university. I had my beach trolley containing drawing materials, easel, table and chair, and a thermos!

I enjoyed a blissful time sitting in the dappled sunlight. I can see how my use of colour can change the image!
