This morning before I go dashing out the door I would like to share with you my sketch from yesterday. It is another mundane topic but it is in the spirit of drawing every day things. I think I enjoy drawing food. Since to day is market day I will have some more to draw too!
This sketch was done in a Strathmore mixed media sketchbook which is 5.5 in x 8.5 in (14 x 21.6 cm) using artist pitt pens, Derwent watercolour pencils, watercolour paint, white charcoal pencil and lots of fun splotching about!

Wow. Different or what. Onions are such fun to draw and paint. Can’t wait to see what comes from the market.
Lovely. Onions and mushrooms – two of my sketching favourites!
How long does it take you to make a quick sketch?
Hi Beth it depends on how complex the subject. When I started it was about an hour but now I am often taking 15-20 minutes but as I say it really depends on the subject.
