Having a supportive aardvark is a precious thing when one is fatigued and ill. One should choose a cafe that caters for them, or ensure a packed lunch is carried as a standard... The environment looks remarkably like #cafeshenkin - makers of remarkable coffee and food. This #messysketch was initially intended as a #quicksketch. #HA! These two contain a number of exercises for weaknesses I need to work on but they are chock-a-block of accidental changes and technical faults.☹️ We are all works in progress, dear covered skeletons. I had a bit of a palette, trying to use subtle colours but they unfortunately became noisy. #oh well. One problem with doing a water colour with gouache for details is that I confused them and forgot what I was doing.🙄 I also know there is a point where one has to stop, despite the glaring faults. This is a #sketchbook, not a major work! #innercritic #fabrianoclassicartistjournal #gouache #watercolour #aquarelle #learninghowtopaint #winsorandnewton #schminke #danielsmith #artistsofinstagram #artists #illustrators #illustratorsofinstagram #illustration #loveofanimals #africananimals #animallover #aardvark #capuccino #Erskineville #erskinevillelife #isanyonereadingthis?🤔😆 #unfiltered #unedited https://www.instagram.com/p/Bl4a94aA3jS/?igshid=o591pq3bekio
