This weeks sketch is from a photo I took last summer of a plant in my mums garden.
Just a quick sketch with pen and then used watercolour pencils and then a brush that you fill with water - these brushes are great to carry if you intend to go out sketching, as the water lasts quite a while.
I'm now off to Blue Chair Diary to check out the other Sunday Sketches.Have a wonderful day xx

Oooooo these brushes sound so cool! Where do you get those? I love this as it gives me hope that the soft muted colors of spring are really around the corner! It is wet and grey and damp here in the northwest!
Wishing you a great Sunday!

Lovely sketch. Love my water brushes. They are perfect to carry with my watercolor pencils and crayons.
Very pretty, I really like the handwriting on it and like the photo of your pens!
ah, summer flowers, lovely
and lovely as a sketch/painting~
I've got one of those brushes - I still haven't used it yet!
I'm noticing lots of flower paintings around blogland this week - possibly because those of us in the Northern hemisphere are so fed up with winter!
sweet sketch, very cheerful
I really need to branch out from my charcoal sketches and add some watercolor to my work! You inspire me!
How can you not like flowers!!! Beautiful colors!
Nice brushes! I have to invest in them! And th eflowers are so beautiful and such a gift on this cold wet winters day...I had forgotten all about flowers this winter!
I love flowers, these are so beautiful!

Sweet piece... thanks for the hint on the water brush - did not know there was such a thing... but these pencils are new to me also. I'm fascinated with the idea.
I love them! soft but powerful!
cheers, dana
Those brushes look so cool! Almost like a marker which I am much handier with. Love the soft colors you used and the energy in your brushstrokes. I agree "bring back spring."
What fun flowers! Makes me yearn for spring.
OH those are so pretty!
I would love to learn more about the brushes you mentioned too. clever. great photos, too! xxoo
Hi Helen,
I love the line work and the cheerful colors in this painting.
Your handwriting is so pretty too. I'm hopeless with my penmanship.
Love your flowers, they really make me long for spring!
Such beautiful flowers - it's a great way to make them last forever :)
