These were some sketches I did before making a wedding card for my daughter's wedding on saturday. Here I am ironing her dress at the last moment while she was still in it! My granddaughter was the youngest bridesmaid and here she is at the front door waiting to go. The newly married couple outside the cathedral. They'd been planning and organising for over a year and at last the day came when all their efforts were worth all the stress and anxiety. The day went perfectly! I can't believe it's all over!

Hello! I've not been here for a while have I? Here's this week's Illustration Friday drawing for 'wrapped' and below I'll show you what I've been up to... We spent a week at my favourite place in the world...St Ives! Here I am with two of my daughters near Mermaid Cove in Zennor. It truly is a stunning place and covered in beautiful heather (even though you can't see it from this picture!) I didn't find time to draw as much as I usually do when I'm home, so felt a bit rusty when I did eventually get the sketchbook out! This last one is a bit random but I thought I'd show it anyway!

This week's Illlustration friday is 'Modify' And here's a recent page of my sketchbook.
