This week spring seems to have gone into overdrive! The leaves are bursting everywhere, with each species displaying it’s own special green. 

Here are a selection I spotted on a walk recently. The sky isn’t quite so blue as I’m writing this, but the rain is much needed!

Drawing is so instinctive for me now that I just do it. 

However, when someone else watches me draw and comments on the process of how a drawing is created it makes me almost zoom out and think about how I’m constructing the picture and what I’m looking at and when. 

So this week I’ve tried something new. I sat down to do my daily drawing but this time, I filmed it in real time and talked as I drew, in an attempt to explain what I’m doing and where I’m looking as I go.

I thought I’d keep up the idea of sharing some of the photos I’ve taken while on my walks.

Time has whizzed and these were all actually taken last week -
