A peach


Peaches aren't in season at the moment in Australia so I did the drawing from memory. i love peaches. I used to have a tree at home as a child but it died . I always wanted a peach tree and finally planted fruit trees at my old house.
My first peach for the season off the tree was my greatest joy. A friend watched me once and couldn't believe how ecstatic i got.
Now I have moved I still love selecting my first peach from the fruit man.
I love the white peaches best. I love the fluffy velvety skin and the juicy taste is splendid. It delights the child in me.
I'd love to find someone in the area who grows peaches so I could once again pick my first peach for the season straight from a tree. Until I do I have sweet memories literally.

Another doodle


Loving doing my doodles. Hopefully I can get back into doing other drawings as well. I guess a lot of us go through phases.

Clothes sketches


I have kept sketches of my clothes and outfits. Recently I have started to do sketches of myself in the clothes in the mirror and find the results interesting as compared to my naive people drawings in the post for July 31st.

Grid doodle


Decided to muck around and do doodling in a grid. Rather restrained but I still loved doing the doodling.

Doodling


At the moment I have a doodle page with my journal and daily timetable and I doodle every chance I get. I absolutely love it. The freedom to put the lines wherever I like. I am hoping in the future to express the challenges as doodling rather than realistic drawings. I like the way I can put the lines anywhere I want rather than being dicated to by the object I am drawing in a realistic drawing. All in the journey of discovering my style of drawing and furthering my creative expression.
Enjoy the journey. Lots of love from Susan in Australia
