Seed Head Sketches

 Seed Heads

Hello everybody, I hope you've all had a good week.

 Following on from my previous post and the photo's of the seed heads I decided to do a bit of sketching. 

 ********************************************* 

My sketch books are never far from reach and having a nosey through them I found some old seed head sketches so I added some new ones.

One of these looks like exploding clouds or popcorn or even sheep on sticks.

 These dandelion heads are sketched using pencil, watercolour paints and chalk.

These next sketches have been done using pencil, watercolour paint and oil pastels.
I also collect seeds and other items when I'm out and about then tape them into the sketchbook.

These preliminary sketches will eventually form the basis of some paintings I'm planning, I'd like to do some bright, colourful abstract paintings for my summer exhibition so I'll keep you posted, meanwhile I'm off to check out more blogs over at the Handmade Harbour Link up
