Richard Bell's nature sketchbook since 1998
Rain on the studio window blurs my view of the garden, meadow and wood so I turned the other way and drew the end of the shelf.
Lamy Safari with a medium nib with an ink cartridge, which unlike the Noodler’s isn’t waterproof, so I haven’t added any watercolour.
The hybrid limes in the Victorian gardens of Horbury are now in fresh green leaf and the apples are in blossom.
This blossom is a variety called James Grieve which is a cooker at the start of the season, an eater as it gets sweeter towards the end.
The compass and the cinema-goer were drawn in odd moments this week.
