Not really making any artistic progress

[smallhobbit]

The cross stitch is going well though:



And I'm already looking at which bookmark to add to my Christmas list, although nothing has leapt out at me yet.  I'd like to do another Fine Art kit, but neither the DMC National Gallery nor the British Museum really inspire me.

But art wise I'm not getting anywhere.  I have a daily 'slot' when I do my cross stitch, but nothing similar for art.

Here, just to prove I have done something is a couple of sketches I drew in Bessborough Gardens when I was on my way to the Tate Gallery:



Bessborough Gardens is a recent square - it was the site of Holy Trinity church which was demolished in 1954 due to bomb damage.  The buildings are 1980s pastiche white stucco facade houses - which I hadn't realised.  Anyway, a third floor two-bedroomed flat was on sale for £1,385,000 in May this year.  So I won't be moving in anytime soon.

Lastly, have a photo of a rainbow, taken from the window of a rather less expensive Gloucester house - but we have three bedrooms.

Wow! That's really come along well! You can't be that far from the finish now.

I haven't had a lot of time for cross stitch lately, but I'll have to get some pictures up.

Thank you - another 17 rows down and it's finished - that'll still take a while though. Looking forward to seeing your pics when you post them.

More left than I thought, but you're still close to the finish line.

Thanks. I have to take and edit the photos first!
