As I’m still drawing all the Christmas presents that I received, I thought I should draw these chocolates that were given by an old friend – before the last one is eaten! The brand is called “Lick the Spoon” (what a great brand name) and these particular ones are called “The Bish” – salted caramel over hazelnut and almond praline….yummy!

I am still working through my “thank you for the Christmas present” set of sketches. What is the perfect present for men? Socks of course! These were from one of my many nephews.

Here is another of my “thank you for the Christmas present” sketches. I actually got two of these Body Shop shave away kits from two of my brother-in-law’s. As each tub of shaving cream lasts me for a year, I think I am sorted for a long time!

Here is another “thank you for the Christmas present” sketch. These pens were from my daughter, something I specifically asked for so that I can add white highlights on my sketches. They work nicely…but I have to be patient and let the paint dry thoroughly first!

So at last I am posting more than once a day – I just have a backlog of drawings I haven’t shared yet. This is another one of my “thank you for the Christmas present” sketches. My nephew bought me this bamboo cutlery set that comes in a little roll up pouch. The idea is you can avoid using the plastic spoons and forks that some fast food places automatically provide (and then throw away!). There is a little card inside that says “thank you for caring with sip”. I guess ‘sip’ makes them – they also seem to make steel straws.

I am continuing sketching my Christmas presents to say thank you – this wallet was from my eldest daughter. It’s already stuffed full with bits of paper, receipts and cards….but not very much actual money!

As a way of saying thank you to everyone who got me a Christmas present this year I have decided to sketch each gift (as well as doing my usual sketches when I am out and about). It may take me a while, but it also makes it easier for me to think up a subject matter! This one was from my sister and brother-in-law, an extra gift that was opened at the Christmas dinner table.
