One Sketch 306) Tintern Abbey

Dissolved, to satisfy
Old Henry's lust
- Yet still it stands,
While that fat git is dust.

Couldn't believe that the prompt today was Wales. Blimey, where did I start? Over the last 2 years I 've made literally hundreds of sketches of Wales. In the end I plumped for one of my favourite Welsh buildings, Tintern Abbey.

One Sketch 305) (Thursday 24th) Tikal Pyramid

I've always been the kind
To flip my lid
For a central American
Pyramid

Maybe you look at this and think Mexico. Well, close, but no cigar. This is actually found in Guatemala, the city of Tikal.

One Sketch 304) (Weds 23rd)Vietnamese Street

Dive in headfirst
To the sea of people

The rompt on Wednesday was Vietnam. Best I could come up with.

One sketch 303) Rhinoceros

It is a beast
I have to say
Of quite exalted rank
It has my admiration
Half animal,
Half tank.

No idea what else to sketch today, so decided on this rhino - shall we call him Neil. Badoom boom ching - I'm here all week, ladies and gents.

One Sketch 302) Usain Bolt

A Jamaican sprinter called Bolt
A sprinter supreme with fault
Who tore down the track
Without holding back
A bugger to bring to a halt

Challenged on sketching every day to match the prompt - the Carbbean - I chose this iconic figure.

Oe Sketch 301) Rohan Daniel Eason

I have to be honest,
I can see it would get you down
Waking up halfway
Between a cyberman
And a clown.

Featured artist on Sketching Every Day today is the ultra-brilliant Rohan Daniel Eason. This man is a master of monochrome. This is an inferior copy of an illustration he made for Doctor Who Tales of Terror. All that talent, and he illustrates Doctor Who as well. I'm in total awe of the man.

One Sketch 300 (THREE HUNDRED!) - Murcia Cathedral

We've come so far
Well, what d'you know?
300 down
And 65 to go.

The prompt on Sketching Every Day was - I was here -. Well, this is Murcia Cathedral, and I actually was here, back in August. You may even recall me posting pictures sketched on my day out in Murcia back at the time.

How about that then? 300 days! I'm really happy about it, especially since that second hundred, since that second hundred, between July and October, seemed to take forever, while this third hundred seems to have gone much more quickly. I'm tempted to start discussing now what Effect I think it's had on me that I've made at least one sketch of some kind every day for 300 days in a row, but that would be premature, and it can wait until the end of March when I will complete the challenge, providing that I can keep it up for 65 more days.
