Easter Greetings to all of my friends and family
Here is my hot cross bun, Drawn and ready to heat, butter and eat.
My kettle is on the boil for my coffee.
Looking for more Easter bunnies, chocolates and hot cross buns?
Here are my previous Easter drawings
my hot cross bun as promised…
Happy Easter !
and here it is as a work in progress … drawn over an evening . I never time how long a drawing takes me, as I do not have a “start” and “finish time”. I have the tv on in the background, check my emails, and get up and down to do other things around the house while I am drawing.
Here is a list of the watercolour pencils I used for this in my Moleskine Watercolour Sketchbook

Burnt Yellow Ochre
Raw Umber

Happy Easter to all.
Each year I draw an Easter card for my mother and also somehow find another treat to draw in my sketchbook. This year is no different .
This is a china rabbit that I have .He comes out and sits on a shelf at Easter. My grandmother remembers that it belonged to her mother and it was there about the time she was married – so maybe in the 1940s.
I also have a hot cross bun that will be drawn and eaten and added to this page over the next day or two….check back. I will see how long it lasts , sitting there temptingly on the kitchen bench in its brown paper packet.
I have four days of relaxation, socialising, and drawing ahead of me . Wonderful
This is the same rabbit when I drew him last year
and other previous years Easter drawings
