Back from the outdoors...
... just got a lift back home from Perthshire tonight. Had a good laugh at myself: I took so many pastel boards and canvases with me - see the last post ... just filled one of each. BUT: my travel sketchbook is full of line and wash impressions of the Scottish countryside. So, I finally seem to have found a way of using the sketchbook more than just occasionally. Excellent! Also excellent is that I still have another couple of weeks of holidays, enough to hopefully fill some of those boards and canvases (is this the plural for canvas, looks slighty odd?!) with green to golden to purple Scottish hills in low clouds. Did I say that it rained a lot? Had a great time, though. Now to the unpacking...

good for you! sketchbooks are a resource for ever :) and a way of practising, recording and developing. I'd be lost without mine.
yes - I'm really pleased with getting to use it... it seems such a useful way of beginning to work through impressions, ideas and first thoughts.
