Sketchbook day 8 & 9:


More daily sketches as I continue to push through the final illustrations for my upcoming children's book, "Ladybug! Ladybug!". We are about 3 days away from packing our bags once again to fly overseas to start our new life for awhile. It's exciting in many ways and am looking forward to seeing family. Enjoy and I hope to sit down with a cup of tea in hand later tonight and catch up with everyone. Toodles, for now!

    Just been enjoying a catch up and seeing all your beautiful sketches, the one with the cup of tea and a good book really appeals to me. My favourite way to relax.
