More wall ideas
The Facebook people have spoken! Llama, peacock, badger, mushrooms, seahorse and sloth as suggestions to draw.
So sketching, I posted online that I wanted suggestions of animals, I now have a few ideas to work with and I am now going into practice mode. I need to get the images down. Also need to practice on buildings more, but I can’t due to the weather. 😒
so I’m going to take photos of buildings and design on the photos.

my iPad decided to gain a crack and I had to send it back to be repaired, hopefully it will be fixed soon.
Also I have decided to try out textures and on previous page, as posts are made of different types of textures. So I can not guarantee a Smooth surface so I am going to try these ideas on these bits in this book.

As you can see/feel these are raised and give the images text you with no effort on my part, so far my past idea has no momentum due to the weather.
