Sketch

I sketched an American Crow caught in a rain shower, based on a photo I found on the web.

Apparently, American Crows are slightly different from their European cousins. They are very similar in size, structure, and behavior, but their calls and visual appearance differ.

Drawn using an Apple Pencil Pro, iPad, and the Procreate app. I kept things simple, working with primarily HB, 6B, and charcoal pencils/brushes.

It's starting to get a bit chilly, and I can see the first signs of autumn in the trees.

A soft, green glow

During the summer months, I tend to be an early bird.

Another Covid Nightmare

I am inside an Italian hotel bar, I am alone. The room is long and narrow, it has a minimal brutalist style with smooth grey concrete walls.

The Warehouse: an anxiety nightmare?

I am inside a vast, cavernous, brightly lit warehouse, I am standing on-top of a large wooden box. The box I stand on is stacked upon other boxes.

Sweet Chilli - Red Cabbage

This is an easy but slightly time consuming side dish. Works great with Salmon and Roast Potatoes.
