Today's practice piece. The reference photo is from the last day of #drawingaugust this year. Now rendered in oil paint. I think I'm even beginning to slow down. miraculous 🐌

Looking at your work for #DrawingAugust again, your use of colour is complex and subtle yet with some fabulous contrasts, complements and juxtapositions. Such balanced composition too - working A5 and A6 must be challenging 👍😎

Seven very scribbly figure drawings: a waiter, three photographers, calling a taxi, pulling on a rope and just sitting (on the ground). Signed ‘JDK, 31/8/25 Drawing August’.

It was day 31 #DrawingAugust & #DrawingAugust2025. I got a few quick figure sketches in. Not from life and all open for improvement, but v happy with them overall.

I’d’ve loved to have got more done in the month, but I’m v pleased to have done as much as I did too. Should do more, here’s hoping.

This morning I was all,'Phew, August's over. Thank goodness I don't have to do a drawing today.' And then... out popped another one. Guess it's a habit now. Trying to do a smiling self portrait. So difficult. Charcoal this time. #DrawingAugust

Have thoroughly enjoyed #drawingaugust both participating in and seeing the work of other people - though I have missed a few days!

The final day of #DrawingAugust and I've continued with the canal side. This tree has entranced me.
It's been great to have this month as a focus for drawing of some kind. Thanks to @viviennem.bsky.social for getting us going.

My last drawing of #DrawingAugust is of a poor tree split by Storm Arwen in Nov 2021. The fallen trees are a daily reminder of the power of the storm. Hopefully not to be repeated any time soon.

Trying out some new (to me) watercolour paper & doodled something a little autumnal seeing as it’s the last day of August

I also managed to do more dipping in than out for #DrawingAugust too for the first time in ages, which I’m taking as a win. Thanks for all the likes & reposts

Day 31 of #DrawingAugust and I finish with a self portrait, this time in very soft pencil. Some might say it would have been a good idea to brush my hair first and/or tidy the room. Some might be right.

A by-product of #DrawingAugust - a still life that took three days, on and off, while I tried to shrug off this cold. 'Apples and Pears' in pastel.
