Daily Sketch 12/01/2012 - Birdhouse
As I was sketching this one I had an earworm by way of a bit of musical nostalgia... "blue canary in the alley by the lightswitch, who watches over you" etc. etc. Who remembers that little gem from They Might Be Giants? Slightly surreal and ever so catchy, the tartist and I used to have the album on cassette tape and almost wore it out, it was late eighties I'm guessing.
So in case you don't remember, or have never heard it here are They Might Be Giants with 'Birdhouse in your Soul' deep lyrical surrealist joy!

Daily Sketch 09/01/2013 - View Towards Wigborough
Because there was no sketch yesterday I'm giving you a double dose today! In fact this was the first fine day for quite some time here on Mersea Island so I was afforded the luxury of a bit of sketching in the fresh air. I took myself off in the direction of the seawall in what became apparent were totally inappropriate shoes. The footpaths have been reduced to a quagmire with the recent rains and the tartist had driven off with my walking boots in the car, so I squished my way through the mud towards the Strood where a large flock of Brent Geese were gathered on the field just behind the seawall. Their constant cackling was a welcome bit of background accompaniment to my drawing.
