Dirty Dishes

Most of the time when I come home, my kitchen looks like this. By the end of the week, I really cannot avoid it any longer and I have to actually do the dishes. 

Well, not tonight - I decided to sketch it all before getting my hands all soapy. I got carried away and so another evening goes by in which I leave the kitchen mess untouched. It will all be clean come Monday though. Grrrrrmppphhh.

Here is proof I do clean them.

Fields of Rapeseed

Quick sketch just before supper. 

I am not too happy with how the paper looks in scans. I prefer the moleskine watercolor sketchbook, but then I also think they should also make a portrait and not only the landscape version. So, this sketch was done in a handbook watercolor journal. 

43rd Worldwide Sketchcrawl in Neuchâtel

Here are a couple of sketches from the 3rd National Swiss Sketchcrawl!

After about an hour of sketching at the chateau we went to have lunch at a lovely warm crêperie. We were so glad to get warmed up a bit after sketching in the freezing wind outside.

 Afterwards, we went to the Neuchâtel Museum of Natural History for some more sketching and finally we all met up at the Confiserie Schmid.
