September already where do the months go ? The sun is still shining and we are having a spate of lovely autumnal days, with just a few showers thrown in, however that is not bad as I am still sitting in my living room with the back door open, it is that mild.
As you can see above I have started another new drawing this time a Flat Coat Retriever, a youngster and looker methinks. She is being done in graphite on Fabriano but I have chosen to do her eyes in CPs which adds that little bit extra interest. I have not done many Graphite drawings on Fabriano 5 paper before as I tend to opt for something with a bit more "tooth" to it, but that paper is more cream in tone, where I wanted something pure white for this one. It is also being done from my own photo that I took of her a while back at a local dog show.
Blimey Vic have you just woken up - its been September for 19 days already!!
ReplyDeleteKnow what you mean though, I heard some bright spark on the radio yesterday mention its just 14 weeks till Christmas ...
Look forward to seeing this latest dog emerge from the paper. I'm hooked on Mellotex for graphite work but that is really smooth compared to Fabriano
