I will be on holidays in the United Kingdom for the month of September. So my blog will be taking break from this weekend.
I will be sketching all the time everyday and plan to instagram my travel sketches daily (wifi permitting).My instagram account is alissaduke1. Follow me there.
I am travelling with my mother , who lives interstate. This year (as in previous years) I have drawn on envelopes of the letters that I have been posting to her during the year. I have drawn things and places in the UK.
Here are just a few:
will we see badgers? I dont think so, but you never know…
Goodwood Revival Motor Racing
Hegdehogs ! The plan is to visit Mrs Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital and see hedgehogs there
I watched a documentary on the Great Fire of London. So we will be visiting Monument
a dormouse – so very English. but I do not think that we will see one.
Big Ben – under scaffolding and not working. Luckily we have seen it before
I often drawn on envelopes . See more mail art projects on my Flickr page https://www.flickr.com/photos/alissaduke/albums/72157628133709960
In the meantime – Happy sketching !!!
Have a wonderful fun filled holiday.
Looking forward to seeing all your beautiful sketches.
Bon Voyage.
Susan
Have a great time, Alissa. The weather has cooled off a little but that may not be a bad thing, you’ll be spared Brits moaning about the heat.
We are really looking forward to this holiday. The weather looks like it will be the same as Melbourne is now at the end of winter . As long as the rain stays away for some outside events that are planned! Do you ever sketch with Urban Sketchers ? we will be in Bristol and hope to meet with some sketchers there.
Thanks Susan. I am usually very prolific sketching on holiday and fill 2 or 3 sketchbooks. Scanning and uploading when I return home is always a major event.
Enjoy yourself. Looking forward to seeing more of your sketches en route.
