The weather has been so harsh for the past few weeks, that I cannot bear to go outside unless forced. Instead I have been drawing at home, prompted by the paper texture in a new sketchbook to rediscover graphite. To me, the winter is vividly present in the blank expanses of the page.
trying to stay warm..
indoor passtimes..
we'd prefer hirbernation until spring, if possible..
All you Northern-hemipherians, how are you coping? I am comforting myself with the fact that we already have +2 hours daylight here now, and that the spring Equinox is only a month and a half away.

Beautifull, Ea! Here is warmer, but colors desappeared too. Lots of graphite, ink, and white. And a few chilometre from Naples we are having the most incredible snow since years. Love to stay at home as well. Hugs
your white spaces are always so inspiring, love the way that each page encases the drawing and in a way makes it breath.
Isn't the change in light nice? I've noticed it in the morning - which definitely helps to get moving.
Here in Canada the weather has not been consistent at all - warm, freezing rain, snow, cold and repeat! I'm looking forward to spring and getting out to sketch!
Coping very well here in New Brunswick. I love to shovel snow on a beautiful sunny morning like today.
Here in Glasgow its beginning to get brighter - usable daylight from about half eight til four - enough to finally get some painting done!
