DAILY SKETCH - WENT TO THE WINDMILL CAFE ON WIMBLEDON COMMON TO DRAW

My new sketches are done with the Derwent Inktense Blocks, they are so different from my usual medium which is pen, watercolour and crayon. Here are my first two drawings

SKETCHES WITH THE GROUPS 'URBAN SKETCHERS LONDON' AND 'DRAWING LONDON ON LOCATION'

THE YEAR 2014 IS WHEN I CONTINUED SKETCHING AND DRAWING IN LONDON

The sketching this year is a bit different because some of the time I am going out with two sketching groups.  One is linked to Flickr and is called 'Urban Sketchers London'.  The second is a 'Meet-up' group called 'Drawing London on Location'.  Here are some of my recent sketches
