Hello December! This year I am going back to the spirit of “One Moment, One Drawing” to build an advent calendar. I will be counting down the days to Christmas with a new black ink wash sketch every day. These will be quick takes, straight from the artist’s desk. Inspired by nature and the seasons we will look at the city from different angles. Let’s see how many days we can count together?
P.S. – If you bookmark this page, you will be able to come back and check for new drawings, without having to dig through the blogroll.
