This morning I enjoyed a flat white and a sketch in the sun as spring is certainly, beginning, almost here although when the sun went behind the clouds it felt like autumn!
So good to be out sketching on the streets again though, and I have more in person sketching workshops coming up later in the month so look out for me 🙂
The lovely looking purple, or is it maroon? building on the corner is The Earl Grange Cafe
A grand clock in Edinburgh, currently having a bit of a facelift.

A little distraction for an hour or so helps and drawing has given me that plenty of times over the years.
I drove along to Newhaven after the school drop off but although the sun is strong the air is still cold here in Edinburgh so I drew the view from my car.
It didn’t really matter the subject although I do like the shadow this van makes 
Take care, have a good day. ES
I used binoculars to follow its path across the night sky tonight, so beautiful, so amazing to see all the creators and markings. How amazing, and terrifying it would be to look back at earth from up there.
Thanks to friend Katie, or Ktp_kaptures who has steadier hands than I and caught the amazing photo I sketched from.
A busy, bright and colourful street in Edinburgh.

I pass by here often on the way to sketch stockist Art & Craft Collective on Causewayside, and have often peered through the railings and seen the strong sunshine lighting up the deteriorated headstones.
This time though I stopped to scribble the scene and try and capture that light on this scared place, which hasn’t been used for a burial since 1867.
Signed and mounted prints of this sketch can be purchased on my Etsy shop HERE.
