I haven't added anything recently so here's a collection of what I've been up to. I have returned to life drawing (or painting) after a break which lasted years! My efforts are recorded below. I have also included some work that I have in progress and a number of sketches.

My pochade box, Nostell Priory, West Yorkshire and the sketch I completed, below. Trying to do this more to improve my painting and speed. Takes a little getting used too. As I have found, there are 3 types of audience when you are stood there - the people who pretend your not there (very British), the people who talk to you and offer their opinion and those hang around behind you, watching, but not saying a word!
