129- Strange but true!
A stranger thing I've never seen whilst walking on the moors,
a sheep without his jumper on, but still with hairy drawers!
I wonder if we'll ever know or find out in the end,
is there reason in this madness, or just a new sheep trend?

102- Pen Sketch Exercise
I can't believe it's been almost 2 weeks since I've posted any work! I'm shocked at just how easy it is to get out of the habit of drawing on a regular basis. I have been somewhat preoccupied with other things including applying for jobs! Any-who... I thought I'd kick off with a drawing I copied from one of the books I'm reading at the moment. It was drawn with a fountain pen and a 0.3 fine-liner, they're not ideal but they'll have to do until I get some ink and nibs.
Whilst I still have a goal of drawing and painting landscapes etc, I am currently working on improving my technique and observation skills. I picked up a couple of old but very interesting publications on sketching and these have somewhat rekindled an interest in pen drawings. (I will post a link to the publications later)
So my goal for the month of June is to practice doing more pen and ink work.
