@patmackie Clearly this is an unknown one then. 🙂

@patmackie you have a Doppelganger. If it weren't for the beard you have and a West Highland Terrier, that you don't have, I'd have sworn that I saw you in town this afternoon

Had a go at Illustrative painting as a basis of a story for my 3yo granddaughter

[Malcolm Brooks @malbro2010]

@patmackie With a view of reviving it?

[Malcolm Brooks @malbro2010]

Second attempt at Steampunk. Mixed media. The background was done with Brusho and the girl with coloured pencils. Not really what I was aiming for but a learning experience none the less. #brusho # Procolour @derwentart

Granddaughter's first Nativity Play at nursery. "I NOT donkey, Grandpa. I grey horse!" - of course, silly grandpa should have known. @derwentart #Derwentdrawing #derwentlightfast #colouredpencil #coloredpencil

@bbcstrictly is there an 'in' joke going on? I've seen Claudia, Karen and Jeanette use the BSL sign for 'donkey' on several occasions throughout the series

"No! Bad boy! I said sit!" - very quick, silly sketch to try out some new pencils @derwentart #Derwent

@BeastiesP @ArtObsolete Give it a go. Your drawing skills are good, I'm sure that you will do well with coloured pencils. Just remember that it is a slow medium to work with but the results are worth it 🙂

[Malcolm Brooks @malbro2010]

@patmackie @NicolaNeyhaul Indeed. I showed it to SWMBO with a hint that it was a good idea and she replied, "*Rude Words*" 😆
