13 days Sketching in London 2024
I visited London in December 2024 with my family and kids. We have been there for two weeks [13 days]. I used to wake up on 5 A.M (or so), moving to the living room in the apartment with a book to read and my minimalist art bag.
My Art Bag:
A small (7in x 4.5in x 2.5in) bag, the bag is for mobile and passport, but I use it for my art. It contains:
– Sketchbook.
– Water colour metal palette with 3 brush.
– And black Pens : 0.05m, 0.3m, 0.8, and white gel pen, and mechanical pencil.

The bag/case is a mobile/Passport travel case, I use it for my art.
Metal colour palette, it comes with 14 colors, but I add the middle raw and divide the head to small squares so I can mix more colours.


Here are 13 sketches that I drew in London, all were under low-lights sitting on the couch 🛋 having my morning coffee ☕️.
More sketches in the blog.
One year back Sketch

A Daily Sketch routine, this sketchbook is for black pen sketches, but sometimes I just add some colours.

Daily Sketch: A Dear Face
This is one of my colored sketch back to June 2021 at lockdown time. For Colored sketchbook I am not in Daily based sketch, but trying to keep challenging my self.

Daily Sketch: The Tiger
Using a new pocket size sketch book, pincel and water-color; it is a quite challenge to mix colors on a thin paper. Here is another Daily Sketch challenge “The Tiger “. The paper is observing the water and in some places the paper get damaged.
Here is the sketch..

Daily Sketch Challenge: Octopus
Away from coding and reading here I am finding myself sketching some lines and dots to be an Octopus.
I am using a new pocket size sketch book, but it seems that the paper is not good for water-colos, it is quite challenge to mix colors. But at the end I will use every page of it. 🙂
Here is the sketch..

Another sketch challenge: Red Pandas
This week sketch challenge @1hour1sketch is to Draw a Red Pandas or Racoon Fox, so here is my sketch using pencil, black Pen and watercolour.
I am sure I can’t do better than this, I need more practice in using white color and fur drawing / painting
