One Sketch 256) The Parthenon

The older, and more ruined
She gets
The more beautiful
She becomes.
For most of us
It works
the other way.

Another Sketching Every Day prompt. I love the Parthenon. Visited it for the first time in 1982 - love at first time.

Why does it take so long

Just to say

Welcome?

It works like this. Yesterday I attended a National Conference - mainly for those pupils about to apply for University Places. It involved a round trip of 5 hours. In all honesty I was flirting with disaster yesterday since there was precious little time for sketching all day. In the end I had to just dash off this very quick sketch of a couple of the students sitting in front of me in the Welcome session - which lasted about 20 minutes, which was about 19 minutes too long. 

One Sketch 254 (Tuesday 4th December) Cookie Monster

You can keep your Honey Monsters
Your teddies and your wookies
Here's the guy who works for me
The one who eats the COOOOKKKIIIEEESSS!

This was inspired by a Sketching Every Day prompt - cookies. I've said this before, I was never the world's biggest muppet/Sesame Street fan, but as a cookie fa myself I always had a soft spot for cookie monster - I even like his rather strngulated use of grammar.

CRACK!

Like me, the Liberty Bell was made in London. So it's cracked. Get over it - you'll be looking none to fresh yourself when you're as old as this is.
