10 Things drawn around Leeds

8. MAKES YOU SMILE 

I didn't see many things that made me smile apart from this cute little cake stand in the gallery, I just really liked it so I drew it in fineliner (my favourites are the cupcakes on the stand). I think if I had more time, I would have chosen watercolour because there were some really great textures I tried to capture with my fineliner but would have come across far better through watercolour. 

9. SMELT OR HEARD / 10. UNNECESSARY 

 One natural thing I heard was leaves falling off a tree and so many at once it sounded like rain, I wasn't close to the tree but I could draw it from a distance. I wrote in pink what I heard as a tree doesn't talk I didn't want to use speech bubbles.

I used speech bubbles in this one as it was actually said! I heard was just a girl shouting for a lighter right across the pond, I thought that drawing it quite simply worked as it just captured the moment (although it's not the most accurate drawing).  This one also counts as my unnecessary as it was really nice and quiet and the girl who shouted could have just walked over (I drew her with her hands by her mouth cause she was doing it to help her shout).
