Hometown glory

 

[Lis Watkins in London] November in London and possibly the last chances to sketch
outside before the weather turns too cold. Rich autumnal shades in nature and
the start of the twinkling Christmas lightshow along busy shopping streets, the
city looks lovely at this time of the year. Staying still, watching the world
spin by, drawing with paint and pens in my sketchbook. Nothing I like more.

Drawings of the Royal Albert Hall, the Albert Memorial and the Kyoto Garden in Holland Park with watercolour and pen in a Stillman and
Birn sketchbook. Plus one from inside the Peter Jones café on Sloane Square.
