These Inigo Montaya gesture drawings from a The Princess Bride-inspired All In Gesture class were challenging, but perhaps not in the way you expect. I found Inigo's hair to be the most difficult thing to draw ... #ThePrincessBride #InigoMontaya #GestureDrawing

#01 from NarniaWeb's prompt list: Around 8 I read my mum's copy of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. Narnia was special because it was the first time a world in a book became utterly real. #WeLoveNarnia #TheLionTheWitchAndTheWardrobe #Narnia

Day 6 of NarniaWeb's #WeLoveNarnia: Favourite Quote "[…] the smell of the sea and long miles of bluish-green waves breaking for ever and ever on the beach. And oh, the cry of the sea-gulls! Have you heard it? Can you remember?" #TheLionTheWitchAndTheWardrobe #Narnia #FanArt

Day 8 of NarniaWeb's #WeLoveNarnia: Favourite Hero The heroes of Narnia aren't always those who bear weapons: the series is full of quietly heroic characters, like Trufflehunter, who I imagine makes an excellent cup of tea. #PrinceCaspian #Narnia #FanArt #NarniaFanArt #Badger

(Belated) Day 10 of NarniaWeb's #WeLoveNarnia Though I didn't finish it on time, I thought drawing the wood between the worlds was the perfect way to end this series. The trees are inspired by the work of Cartoon Saloon! #WeLoveNarnia #TheMagiciansNephew #Narnia #FanArt

I recently became aware of EquiArty which runs Equine Life Drawing sessions in the Scottish Borders. Last weekend I went along and had a wonderful (and challenging) time sketching Bethany’s beautiful Arab horses! #EquiArty #LifeDrawing #Sketching #Artist #EquestrianArt

Beca modelled some lovely poses at last week's life drawing. It was good to be back in the (much warmer!) Haining. I’m looking forward to taking part more regularly again. #ScottishBordersLifeDrawingClub #LifeDrawing #Model #Woman #Sketching #Artist

Last month All In Gesture held a Link-themed class, and I finally got around to joining in after seeing the photos from the new Legend of Zelda movie! #Link #legendofzelda #gesturedrawing #allingesture
