Very brave, I think too, to be out sketching at all at this time of year.

Your sketching style in coloured pencils is very attractive ... you make complex subjects appear so simple.<BR/><BR/>I don't know the bridge very well but I love the cathedral area and Borough Market! Will have to wander down there sometime for a sketching day.E-Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13365028887954425204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30461696.post-73740071788296079852008-02-07T23:31:00.000+00:002008-02-07T23:31:00.000+00:00"Barges at..." is a remarkable drawing.

It makes sense of a hard to grasp scene, and pleases the senses for it's balance and unity.Casey Klahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08020906666248399435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30461696.post-79464919933955101482008-02-07T16:29:00.000+00:002008-02-07T16:29:00.000+00:00Katherine, your blog is a treasure trove of inform...Katherine, your blog is a treasure trove of information.

(Look back through the entries and you'll see what I mean). It just depends on the subject. If the colour makes an impression on me then I tend to add it in. If I doesn't I leave it out.Making A Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13509483023337008890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30461696.post-54515950784382658472008-02-06T23:15:00.000+00:002008-02-06T23:15:00.000+00:00Hello Katherine.May I say that I prefer the non-co...Hello Katherine.<BR/>May I say that I prefer the non-coloured sketch here ... ?<BR/>Some people work mainly in black and white, as if they were sort of afraid of colours, and they sometimes hear comments like 'oh that would be great in colour - why don't you ever use colour?' ... well Katherine, I would like to ask you the opposite question - your 'black and white' drawings are very powerful, why do you so often prefer to add colours? Afraid of leaving it black and white? Sorry, don't take it as an offence... just a point for discussion ;-)Wernerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02516107317933560391noreply@blogger.com
