More summer flowers!
My favourite flowers are now starting to appear in our wildgarden! Lavender, brown-eyed susan and queen anne’s lace, all roadside plants. I love them so much, reminding me of my hours and hours of time in nature when I was a kid. Apparently, yet again, research shows nature (paticularly biodiversity) is really good for us.

Subway scene
Subway sketch from April 12, 2004. People are reading books, not looking at their phones. So strange.

End of the parade
A found sketch from a 2004 ‘sketchcrawl’ where we wandered onto the end of that year’s Santa Claus Day Parade, sketching madly as the marching bands began to dissipate. It was so much fun, I should try this again some time, even make this a regular thing.
