Welcome to Morning Ink, where I share my daily fountain pen drawing and whatever thoughts (sometimes none, mostly reasonably short, occasionally long and very rambling) jump out and onto the screen. If you don’t want daily emails you can toggle them off by going to Manage subscription – just turn Morning Ink off, no need to fully unsubscribe!1
Steps yesterday were mostly got from walking round a college open day and then into the town. I did still get my dose of autumn tree colours through the bus window (no photos, though), the return journey of which was driven by an old school friend.
We’re getting our chimney swept on Tuesday. Looking forward to a few nice evenings in front of the fire in the next few months.
Definitely happier in this A5 sketchbook. It just feels like the ideal size. Probably because that’s what I've been using for months.
Thanks so much for being here. Your presence on its own is a joy, but I love to hear from you, too, so please do feel free to leave a comment. About something that has resonated for you in today’s picture or in today’s words. Or about something completely unrelated. Tell me about your morning, your creative practice, your particular work or life juggling act. Anything. If you want to go even further you can take out a paid subscription – if you’re happy to give me your postal address I'll send you some art of some kind in the post.
And if you don’t like subscriptions (I totally get it!) you can ‘tip me’ instead. But really, your presence and comments are the best rewards – if they could be exchanged for food and electricity, I’d be so very happy.
