• Masqués vénitiens

  
  Mireille Gullo — Authority: 125
  Le carnet des masqués vénitiens que je vous ai montré il y a 2 jours mesure 13x17cm. Celui-ci a le même contenu (32 pages), mais il est plus grand et plus sophistiqué. Il est protégé par un étui cartonné. La reliure comporte 2 coutures apparentes agrémentées de perles. Les coins de pages sont arrondis. La ...

• when i first saw your gallery

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  The National Gallery, and the church of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, Trafalgar Square. I ksetched there while there was still daylight to draw in – the Sun goes down so early in London, earlier than in California (by about eight hours or so). It was bitterly cold of course, but I braved it, and not only because I ...

• sweet fanny ann

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  A little pause in the London sketches – I’m about halfway through now so still many more to come! Here is my first drawing since coming back to the US: Fanny Ann’s Saloon in Old Town Sacramento. I had to go to Sac to do a spot of Christmas shopping. And it absolutely peed down with rain. I had intended on ...

• the ship has weathered every rack

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  This is The Ship, on Wardour Street. Everyone knows The Ship. It’s a small place that never really seems to change, and it’s one of my favourite little pubs in Soho. I used to come here a fair bit in my twenties. Being located right in the middle of soho helps, and I like to stop here whenever I’m back on a ...

• Sofia on the red road and blue sofa

  
  StaubProjekt Photography — Authority: 99
  Le Danube était pourtant plutôt près, la route plutôt belle et l’hiver clément. A s’assoir dans un taxi ou dans une Corsa, à l’aventure. A la belle recherche de la cause politique. Paraitrait que l’on célébrait hier la chute du Mur de Berlin. Parait qu’on est en train de se préparer à célébrer ...

• i lift my lamp beside the golden door!

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  A second Soho sketching day was called for. One is never enough. This time I chose an even colder, wetter morning. The rain had stopped by the time I reached Oxford Circus station, but nonetheless I found a spot under some awnings and sketched the fabulous mock-tudor building of Liberty’s, the big old department ...

• your golden section

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  Another from the afternoon sketchathon in Soho. We made our way through art shops (I love Cass Arts on Berwick St, and Cowling & Wilcox on Broadwick St) and questionable alleys to the slightly more upscale edge of Soho at Golden Square. I had forgotten how early the Sun goes down in England in November – it was ...

  Virtual Graffiti — Authority: 146

As part of the Connected Schools initiative, the e-Islands project connects schools on Croatian ...

• pillars of hercules

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  I love sketching in Soho. You can do a sketch of something, and then just pop into an old pub and sketch in there. Sketch, and repeat. There are so many old pubs in soho to choose from. My friend Simon and I sketched down in Manette Street, just by Foyles Books (one of my favourite bookstores in the world), which as ...

• whenever i walk in a london street

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  …I’m ever so careful to watch my feet. Sometimes though it is good to stop and look up. So this is Tottenham Court Road, by Goodge Street, looking out at BT Tower. I was meeting my friend Simon one chilly Friday for an afternoon of sketching in Soho. They don’t sell Micron Pigma pens in London (I asked), so ...

• please beware: this is the bald-faced stag

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  It actually says that on a sign on the door, honestly. This is the (infamous) Stag, on Burnt Oak Broadway, scene of many a late-night punch-up over the years. Everyone knows the Stag, it’s one of those pubs which are always there, central to a neighbourhood, not just any old boozer, a character in its own right. I ...

• home again

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  I just got back from two weeks in London, where the weather was changeable and there was Match of the Day, trifle and turkey rasher sandwiches to look forward to. And now the scanning and posting begins in earnest! I sketched a lot in London. There was a lot to sketch. But it was cold, very cold, sometimes wet, very ...

• they say that london is brighton-by-the-land

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  I’m still here folks. Well, not here, but there. Freezing my little fingers off, not to mention my poor Pigma Micron pens (unused to sketching in such climates, and you can’t even buy them here), in my home town. Just below, Moley #5 on Tottenham Court Road, just down from Paperchase, just before midday.   ...

• in the city there’s a thousand things

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  I added colour and some more pen to the drawing that I started the other day. I’m pleased with the result. This is a really cool and colourful corner of a cool and colourful city; the view from City Lights, in San Francisco’s North Beach, down Columbus, towards the Sentinel Building, the Trans-Am Pyramid, and the ...

• power of vito

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  Second and final drawing of my short sketchcrawl yesterday, which was interspersed with getting hair cut, shopping for Christmas cards, and generally cycling round thinking, ‘oh I’ve drawn everything in Davis, I’m so uninspired’. So I stopped for lunch. A beer (New Belgium 2 Below, if you’re ordering), and a ...

• away from the numbers

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  Today was the day of the 25th Worldwide Sketchcrawl – in fact it was also the fifth anniversary of the first one. I was pretty busy today, getting my hair cut and other important stuff, so wasn’t able to really take part, but I brought my sketching stuff with me (as always) downtown and managed to knock out a ...

• the e street strummer

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  He stands outside Chipotle and Peet’s Coffee n E Street, busking on his twelve-string at lunchtimes when I am there, sounding like Dylan, Nelson, Haggard; his music is very nice. He has one of those harmonicas you can play while guitaring; no cymbals at the knees though. Very distinctive with his long white hair, ...

• life’s a beach

  
  petescully — Authority: 416
  A few more details to add, plus a colour wash, and this will be done. I have drawn this before, in cobalt blue; this one is entirely from the photos, rather than started on site and abandoned due to rain, to be finished at home. It is North Beach in San Francisco (but where’s the beach, I ask you?), the view down ...

• NY Recap - The Shoppping

  
  BHB — Authority: 428
  OK...so there might have been a little shopping done while I was in NY. It was so cold outside that I just might have had to duck into Bloomingdales, Bergdorfs, and quite a few 5th Avenue boutiques, Fendi, Prada, etc., just to keep warm. (And to keep warm I just might have had to buy a pair of flat black boots and ...
