Dublin Castle - State Apartments

It was a good day to be in a warm indoors location to sketch. And the State Apartments in Dublin Castle are always such a treat! Not too many tourists on this mid-January day, so I really relaxed into sketching. I had decided to work in continuous line drawing. Well, more or less continuous. And it really helped me to not be overwhelmed by all the detail in front of me. I just kept following the line.  

I'm looking at Liz Steel's Foundations online course again and it's helping me reconnect with sketching in a way that I find satisfying. And Liz is such a generous teacher. If you do her online courses, you get to do them again for free every time she runs a live runthrough. I don't always get to do them, but there is always something new to learn or something old to relearn, so even if I only have the time for a couple of weeks, it's always worth it!






And here are my photos taken on location. I often forget to take these.
