Archiane, south Vercors mountains, France |
Two months in France have just flown by and I have finished my first large sketchbook - the Fabriano one shown above. I've also added scores of little landscapes sketches to my little pocket Moleskine I take hiking with me.
We didn't travel around all that much this time, just staying in a few of our favourite places and catching up with as many friends as we could.
Here are a selection of completed sketches from some of the little villages we visited.

Postcard love!
This summer, as we travel around Europe, I am sending original watercolour postcards to people all over the world. You can see one I sent from Fouillouse a couple of pictures above.
To enter to receive a postcard you should follow me on
Instagram or
Facebook.
Au revoir! Until next time which will probably be from Spain.
