Trees in the park – 9 x 14cm. My first Moleskine drawing!

Plane Trees in the Fitzroy Gardens. Mid winter and quite cold. Pen and ink 9x11cm.

Hawthorn station – pen and ink 9x11cm

A sketch of the North-Eastern corner of Parliament House in Victoria as viewed from the garden. 11 x 9cm (roughly actual size on my screen).
