Art club pencil sketches


I attend a local art club every week. In truth, in-between the chatting, cups of tea, and biscuits and cake there isn't much time left for actual art work! But it's good fun to be amongst other artists and bounce ideas off each other. I tend to use the time to make rough sketches and loose life studies of the other club members. Then when I get home I can build selected ones up into an actual artwork or just keep them as resources for future use. I really do enjoy sketching these simple studies, they are so minimal, without any colour or too much detail and have a lovely purity of form.
