Here's yet another little themed book I have on the go. It's a book I turn to when I don't want to do one of those big mad drawings, but just a small sketch (ish). It's a little book of travels around my house. Around my life.
It's been cold here in the UK. Non stop rain. Absolutely chucking it down. I was looking at these logs that live in a box in the wall of my living room. It's been so chilly I was even considering burning them. I didn't, a) because it's July and therefore supposed to be summer and b) because I thought I'd draw them instead and c) because they look too good to burn. They are a box of good looking logs. Yes, I'm shallow.

Delightful sketch! Sometimes the little things become the most significant. LOVE IT!!!
Love the lines in the wood! I wish we had rain here...
Great stuff! Sorry about the rain. It's a hundred degrees out here, and I made a hot british sunday roast dinner yesterday. A bit of rain would have been perfect.
LOL--I think it's only fitting you drew them--think of how many out here you've allowed to now enjoy them as well--if you'd burned them, we'd never have had that opportunity. I thank you! Fabulous!
great again! nice depth to the box. if you're cold i posted a wee little blaze.
It's almost abstract, unreal. I love it. Of course, for me in Florida it is hard for me to even imagine a box - in a wall - in the living room - with logs in it! How exotic! :)
I love your writing... (and the logs too, of course :)
Best regards,
Carolina
your drawings is amasing!!
I'd love to see more of your sketches from around the house! Just back from the UK and so glad to get out of the rain and wind - hope you get some summer weather soon Andrea!
Wonderful little sketch, Andrea. I love sketches on graph paper.
Glad to hear you are a CSN fan. Yes, Stephan Stills' voice isn't what it used to be but, like you said, he can still play that electric guitar like no other. It was so much fun to be there, listening and drawing and remembering.
Cheers—Jennifer
Andrea - I found your wonderful journal via Rose Welty - Wow!! I love your pencil paintings! Lovely - I especially like the rocks. :-)
Hi, I really like your work and hope that this interests you and your readers.
I am attempting to amass a large collection of portraits of Frankenstein's Monster in as many different styles and in as many different media as possible as an ongoing art project. The only stipulation is that the size is 2.5 inches by 3.5 inches (standard artist trading card size) and that each card has name, date, location, title and anything else you care to add on the back.
I welcome cards from both amateur and professional artists.
I will be leaving blank cards with instructions and mailing address in galleries, colleges, art shops, on buses, handing them out in the street and wherever else I can think of.
If you think you can spare the time to produce a little something, please send a portrait to:
A Patchwork Of Flesh
45 Silversea Drive
Westcliff on Sea
Essex
SS0 9XD
United Kingdom
Each card I receive will be uploaded at http://apatchworkofflesh.blogspot.com/ to produce an on-line gallery, I then hope to put on an exhibition of these cards in a gallery.
If you could add me as a link or give the project a mention I would be really grateful.
Ah man...I love your sketchbook world.
Wow your blogs are amazing I love all your drawings!
AMAZING! You are so very talented! =)
Thank you thank you thank you!
I might just post some more stuff from this little book.
Pete, I love a roast as much as the next man, but in that kind of heat? It just don't seem right.
And, you know, even though I'm moaning I actually love the rain.
Cheers, guys.
