Here is the second sketch I did at Sa Kamay Ni Maria Resthouse, on Boxing Day morning. This one illustrates why I love to sketch – until I started observing carefully through doing this drawing, I hadn’t noticed that there is a faced carved into the saddle of this horse. I also noticed that hidden in the bushes (to the left in my sketch) is another horse…standing on a pedestal with a large saddle. I wouldn’t have noticed any of this, unless I had been sketching. Happy New Year everyone!

946 – Two horses by the fire

Over last weekend I went down to the west of the UK to visit some friends. The weather was really foul on Saturday – blowing a gale, rainy and cold. So instead of going out we sat by the fire, watched Strictly Come Dancing, ate dinner and drank G&T’s. Of course I didn’t concentrate on Strictly but sketched instead. My friends have two horses stabled nearby, but in this drawing you can see the legs of some cast metal ones.
