Sky Garden, drawing on to a wash painted in London on Saturday

Pen, watercolour

On Saturday in the Sky Garden my eye was caught by these dark leaved plants against the translucent sides, with some brought spots of colour showing mistily through the leaves – traffic lights and sun between buildings. I made a wash of the background from life on Saturday and then drew the levels on this evening.

Canary Wharf with London Urbansketchers

Pencil, pen, watercolour

In the Sky Garden – a lovely place to sit and draw with the garden and an amazing view across Canary Wharf.

The Big Dig – so much to look at.

On the wings of freedom, a light installation by Aether and Hemera.

A memory of a lattice of trees – this morning the sky was a clear blue and whilst walking between buildings I glimpsed a brightly coloured building with a lattice of bare branches in front of it.

Mossy winter trees . A remembered image from late last week. I was struck by the bright green mossiness on the trunks and the very dark sky behind the trunks.
