The November Project – Week Three

Posted on November 22, 2013 by Katy Gilmore

Another week – a “flower brick,” a glove from the 16th Century, and a paper doll – who knew what flowers might decorate in the collections of the V&A Museum.

I’m wishing all of you the most wonderful week ahead – friends and family, food and festivities – celebrating thankfulness!

And thanks to all of you for reading!

The November Project – Week One

Posted on November 8, 2013 by Katy Gilmore

It’s been a real pleasure in the early morning darkness to tackle a drawing from the Victoria and Albert Museum’s web site – many objects with flowers to draw! Technology was trickier than the drawing materials and methods at first, but that’s becoming part of the routine now – familiar and quick to post to Instagram and Facebook (after waiting till daylight to snap a photo).
