Wandering and Pondering

Welcome to the second week of Summer School!

This week is a week for thinking and dreaming.

If you can, I encourage you to physically wander as you ponder. Take yourself off for some walks this week, perhaps to somewhere you’ve never walked before, or in a direction that you don’t usually go.

If you’re not able to walk, find yourself a quiet space where you can go, notebook in hand and let your mind wander.

Let the ideas flow and grow. Don’t be concerned with limits this week.

Dream big!

The Go Gently Letter

Here’s today’s early morning tea-tray drawing. Drawing my much loved old and raggedy tea cosy and trying out some of the new Neocolor II pastels I bought recently (unboxing over on my Patreon page). This was drawn while drinking the f
