This image is today’s pages from my poetry and drawing journal. These poems and drawings are published on my ‘other’ blog entitled A Poem and a Drawing a Day – I am up to day 179, 18th January… even though today is the 2nd February. This is because while in Italy I fell behind in my writings and postings for a variety of reasons – inconsistent internet access, busy days and BECAUSE I WAS IN ITALY!!
So, since getting back home I have been trying to remedy this by posting two poems and drawings a day – a harrowing task! It means writing two poems as soon as I wake in the morning and then doing fast responsive follow up drawings over a morning cuppa.
Slowly but surely I am catching up…
You can check out my ‘other’ blog here… I hope you enjoy it

Hi Dawn – I overuse the word texture so perhaps patina is the right word here? Beautifully rubbed backed, worked and loved. Also – you can’t worry about work when you’ve been Italy. You have been feeding your soul which is essential for the poet! If you do two drawings and two poems a day you are setting a bit of a task for the rest of us…
look forward to seeing more.
