Sometimes the long street scenes don’t catch all that I want to include. There are countless vignettes here in Lanark which I’ve made a start on sketching as part of my exhibition ‘Streets of Lanark’ in the Tolbooth from Monday 28th Oct for a fortnight.
I’ve added all these sketches in a new page in this blog ‘Lanark Sketches’. Click over to see them all including some cropped close ups as I know my other sketching friends reading here like to have a good close look.
Of course I had to include the real local hero ‘the Girnin Dug/Dog/Doogie’. Couldn’t decide which was his best side, so drew them all, including a close-up!
Thanks for reading and hoping to see one or two of you at the exhibition.

Drawing the Street 
Ha ha! You are very perceptive. I was literally peering closely at the lines wondering whether you use a fountain pen, with my nose about two inches from the screen as I read, “…I know my other sketching friends reading here like to have a good close look.” 😄 Wonderful drawings as always Ronnie. (For some reason WordPress bounces me back when I try to Like on some pages at the moment, but you know that I always do.)
This has made my day Judy! Thank you! 🤗xx
