Wanted to post those for a long time, just some random drawings, probably based on films I saw:
RCA final show
Although it's a bit late, but here's the photos from the RCA show we've been to in beginning of the month. Not a lot of illustrators this year - I counted three, I think - but their work was brilliant. Unfortunately I managed to find the name of only one of them (Matthew Dale).
Room still life
Here's a sketch of some things in my room: palette, candle, cup, etc.I broke this cup today, by occasion - this sketch will make a good memory...
London in July - several random sketches
Here's a batch of sketches I made during our small July vacation:
Edinburgh sketches
Several sketches from Edinburgh that we visited on Tuesday and Wednesday. A view from the mountain:
Other sketches are with colour pencils.
"Bob the Dog" pub dedicated to the brave policeman's dog:
Quick sketch from the main street:
In the evening, from a hostel window:
In the morning, from the cafe window on the Royal Mile:
Great town, a true dream of an urban sketcher!
I have some more sketches from London as well, will post them these days.
Sketches from a bus
Here's some sketches I made riding on the upper floor of the double-decker bus, ballpoint pen with some brush and paint added at home:
Another double-decker:
St. Martin's School Final Show
Here's some of my makeshift photography of the show we've been to yesterday at Central St. Martin's School. At the show, there were graphic design, illustration, photography and animation works, plus some interactive stuff, as for example, a machine that reads movement of your hands to draw a mural, etc.
A sketch from Barbican
I've never been to this place before, although heard a lot about it, and fell in love with it immediately. Will definitely come here again, both for sketching and for events!
Bike trip to Windsor
Here's some sketches from our bike trip to Windsor. It was a long way (we spent 5 hours on bikes), but the path is very nice. It goes along the river most of the time, which is very picturesque, and features hundreds of geese, river locks, bridges and even a ferry. It was hard not to stop for sketching every fifteen minutes!
Windsor castle:
A pencil sketch of a bridge in Staines, which is half way through:
Church in Greenwich
Among many other places we visited during the May holidays was Greenwich. We got there by boat and had a nice walk around. This sketch is from a top of a hill, above the prominent Greenwich meridian:
Sketches from Wimbledon Common
I had a chance to sketch a bit yesterday, in the first part of the day when the sun was still shining and the rainy clouds were yet far away. Here's the view on the "Fox and Grapes" pub from the neighbouring park:
And this is a pond with ravens in the park itself:
Richmond Park

Kingston town centre
I was sitting in the sun while sketching and noticed the sun is quite hot for April weather.

Spotting the right bottle of wine sketch
Trees sketch
Church in Hoxton
I was in the East London the other day and decided to use the occasion to draw a bit. Not being very familiar with the neighbourhood, I wandered in circles until I hit this church with a nice garden and benches around it.
Oak Hill Road - the park
Rural England
Our small trip through rural England.
Crossroad in Surbiton
Here's a desperate attempt to fix the unfixable - this sketch was laying for two months in the waste paper pile, until today, when I decided to see I can make it look like something. After all, I made an effort to make the inital drawing: went to the pub, sat near the window, spent some time sketching the street view.
Here's the result - I covered the half of the page with black ink, as it was the night anyway, and fix some detail here and there.
