Look up!

Never tried drawing the sky from life before. Tricky: at dusk the colours keep changing, and clouds are neither fuzzy nor solid…
It looked a bit like this, just 20 minutes ago.

Nice. Pretty. 🙂
That could be a background for practically anything.

  I was thinking the background for a zombie apocalypse? 😉

New drawing! Been asked for prints of this - I will be putting them up on https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/WaterDrawnArt over the weekend.... "We hear it’s still cold in Ullswater" We got to Ullswater on Saturday morning, in the wind and rain. Rosie and Francine were already swimming, right out across Glencoyne bay, nearly invisible to the naked eye if they hadn’t had tow-floats as well. They were not, however, invisible to the naked ear, swimming as they were at a steady rate of about 100 words a minute. As they came back they passed by the spot where Glencoyne Beck lets into the lake, its cool waters running straight down from the fells, and though it may be June now we could hear quite clearly: it’s still quite cold in Ullswater. #OutdoorSwimmer #theoutdoorswimmingsociety #artistsoninstagram

Summer's here: the Tri Season has begun! (with apologies to triathlon friends and Richard!) "I thought that was you", Richard Smith said to me on Thursday afterwards. ...there was careful cold water acclimatization going on, triathletes emerging from their winter hibernation, technical discussions, comparison of wetsuits and swim trackers... "I saw this person in a bikini barge through with an attitude of "...just going for a swim..." " (he did say barge, but I think he meant it in a good way, I did not actually elbow anyone off the ramp) I've seen triathletes swimming: some of them don't seem to like the water very much, they like to have a fight with it. And they do like wetsuits or their legs sink, with all that bike riding and running about: too much muscle, not enough fat! But whatever you have to do that gets you in the water: and they are getting in the water now. They nearly all overtook me, of course, but I don't care, I've got all year, they've only got a few months! And apologies also to Vobster: it's definitely not all triathlon swimmers, as it sometimes has a reputation for being: there is a dedicated bunch of year-round swimmers, both skins and neoprened, and it's the best water in Somerset! Come and join us! #OutdoorSwimmer #vobsterquay #artforswimmers #outdoorswimmingsociety

Please like and share :-) Prof Wolf’s Evening of Medicine, Music & Channel Swimming. (and cake!) This Sunday in Thornbury (near Bristol) promises to be a fascinating and entertaining treat, from one of our own Clevedon swimmers, who has done a lot of other stuff besides swimming. Proceeds all in aid of Bristol children's hospital, do come along... Professor Andy Wolf recently retired from a career in medicine and proudly became the oldest man to solo swim the English Channel in 2018 whilst raising funds for revolutionary 3D printing technology for children’s cardiac surgery at the Bristol Children’s Hospital. He will take us through the trials and tribulations of the training and competition of his Channel swimming exploits. We will also be treated to explanations about the revolutionary 3D printing technology that Prof Wolf is helping to fund-raise for and develop which is enabling surgeons at the Bristol Children’s Hospital to print exact models of patient’s hearts so that they can plan and practice complex surgeries. Prof Wolf’s talk will be interspersed with live music on a watery theme from local musicians and the opportunity to enjoy some lovely homemade cakes, followed by Q&A Tickets £6.50 (school age children free) from Eventbrite.co.uk – search ‘Prof Wolf’s Evening of Medicine, Music and Channel Swimming’ https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/prof-wolfs-evening-of-medicine-music-and-channel-swimming-tickets-59660067869 #openwaterswimming #OutdoorSwimmer #outdoorswimmingsociety
