Assuming you’ve read the review, I just felt the plot fell short at times. @corylusbooks.bsky.social always produce such wonderful books in translation, and it’s just my opinion but thats how I felt. Definitely give it a go yourself and feed back!

I’m up to 29 days of sketching in January now (but I keep forgetting to post them here!). Here are the latest four; a chocolate tin from Christmas, plus a shell, a kiwi and a perfume atomiser.

A graphite sketch of an Arts and Crafts pattern alongside a watercolour sketch of a glass vase with a red ribbon and yellow flowers, plus a small brown pottery milk jug. “The Wilson” logo in blue consists of a 3by 3 box with one letter in each square.
A lovely morning spent urban #sketching. We cheated a bit and sketched indoors at The Wilson art gallery in #Cheltenham. I love the Arts and Crafts gallery.

Persevering with a painting a day in January. Today’s sketch is my French faience jug, which I use to store wooden spoons. Painted in watercolour on paper. #watercolour #art

I try both and use online and in-person tutorials. It’s fun to try other media too, as they all have their plus points. I recommend Caroline Tatham Art and Wild Ink art classes with Lucia Leyfield.

This was my ‘serious’ watercolour, from art class yesterday. We were challenged to paint rusty machinery in the style of French artist, Marc Folly. Watercolour on paper from a monochrome photograph.
