A very quick watercolour doodle of the Cathedral against the rainy overcast evening sky.
I am not sure if the weather is reflecting my mood or if my mood is reflecting the weather but either way around it all seems pretty dull to me!

A Doodle a Day is a place where I publish sketches created for fun and the love of drawing and more finished illustrations. I draw primarily with pen and ink, either dip pen or fountain pen. I do use other mediums such as watercolour, acrylics, pencil and soft pastels but my first love as a medium is pen and ink, especially dip pen.
I trained and worked for many years as a graphic designer, artist and studio manager within publishing as well taking on freelance projects. I draw for the sheer enjoyment of creating something from nothing but a white sheet of paper and a bottle of ink. I also work as an illustrator concentrating on Childrens illustration. I hope that you get as much enjoyment from seeing these sketches and illustrations as I do from creating them.

not dull at all, like the distant misty view of the town, a bit other worldly and melancholy

This is beautifully realised Charlie. Great touch around the steeples.
