Oh so naughty, starting a blog and then not blogging; surely not an original crime.
Here's some drawings that have been manifesting over the last few months.
Firstly, a Wayang doll. My Mum has two hanging in her lounge, a lovely gift from my brother Dirk that he picked up when he was working in Indonesia. When I decided to draw this I didn't appreciate it's detail. I'm proud of my persistence, which is increasing with experience, and it paid off this time.
I was surprised to find the doll had an extra face, that's the great thing about drawing something; you have to really look at it and sometimes you see something new.
The next...well I'm not sure how old it is, probably before Christmas. I love this drawing so much I had it framed and it's hanging in my bedroom.

















And the lucky last for tonight is...the first of my big dress series. This awakened the teenager in me. Last weekend my nephew said he remembered me drawing dresses when he was a child. I'm sure I've read many recommendations to do the things I liked when I was young. Here's to that!
