Today I went out to a local national trust spot to do something on my wishlist. A simple task- to sit and draw a flower or tree. We sat in front of a perfectly formed magnolia tree. My favourite colour variety with pale pink and white flowers of sett beautifully by the bright blue sky. We started with a joint meditation from the deliciously Ella app to allow for a calm confident start to the art to follow. My focused friend got to work methodically producing a respectable drawing while I started and stopped a few times. It was not as I expected.......it is very hard to transfer what you see and envisage onto paper. Artists are very clever people!
