From a black pencil to coloured pencil drawing I made variations using Photo-edit - using chalk/charcoal, edge, felt pen.

Recent sketches from Fiji






from w
In Rukurukulevu village I sketched coconut trees and a breadfruit tree. The pottery ws a gift from a woman from Sigatoka Valley. The three little pics together is a view from the Holiday Inn in Suva where Peceli and I had a drink and a cool-down from the warm noisy Victoria Parade. An oasis indeed. The picture (using stamp in Photo-edit) looks like a roughly made linocut. These are not the original sketches but have been manipulated a bit!

Before and after rain




from w
It's Friday today and my son scanned in some of my drawings I made of the gully below the flat in Namadi. This is a steep incline with a narrow creek that was transformed to a torrent after one night of tropical rain. Quite a backyard isn't it? There are more sketches on the Babasiga blog. Mostly by using pencils that are shared with the grandkids who like to lounge all over the floor over their papers. In the evenings my son gives the four children maths and English quizzes with little rewards. Grandma joins in too.
