more from West Dean
A few supplies await in my window for when I'll need them later. The instant coffee is for the mornings; the fruit is to be taken to the studio for afternoon snacks; the Fisherman's Friend packet of "traditional menthol eucalyptus lozenges" is a hedge which I will hope not to have to use!
Another of the T & TA students, Erica, works on a drawing at the Orangery... note the fish in the pan at her feet, the subjects for her drawing.
My first sampler is finished on Sunday... and as I compare it with the original from which I worked I see that the lights aren't light enough. The dark and mid ranges are OK but the lights in the weaving are much too dark. I've re-warped and will weave the same cartoon again this week to attempt a better match of value.
