a february sketchbook

some drawings and other doodles in my little black sketchbook, done during the month of february. not quite every single page from february, mostly from the last week or so....artist sketchbook, winter trees, water and abstract patterns, a landscape[sketchbook, february 2012]...artist sketchbook, hedgerow, woods, tree, bark[sketchbook, february 2012]...artist sketchbook, trees, roots, landscape, patterns[sketchbook, february 2012]...artitst sketchbook, abstract patterns, spindly thin trees, bark, wood, logs[sketchbook, february 2012]...sketchbook, more abstract patterns[sketchbook, february 2012]...artist sketchbook, forms and patterns in nature, bark, lichen[sketchbook, february 2012]these 'moleskine style' sketchbooks (which i've not used or liked very much before now) seem to go on forever, and the paper is quite thin, creating ghostly, phantom traces of drawings (which i sometimes quite like).i've not yet finished the new work i started in the late autumn. quiet, cold evenings in february are better suited to sketchbook doodling and reading books, don't you think? with another week to go......

some drawing on the agenda

doodles discovered in the course of sorting through some paperwork...a rash of circles, discs and pods......the building blocks of the future......a large pod vessel and some small paper roses?...geometric and tiled patterns......a short flight of stairs (leading nowhere)......probably bark, or maybe rocks, with some small tumbling blocks......mondrian on my mind, (or was it just the windows?)......looks like earth and some other unidentified globes in orbit......more constructivist building blocks......making waves......
