Art it Up. This is a weekly meme hosted by Tabitha over at Not Yet Read. The idea being to see if you can come up with some 
inspiration for a little sketch or doodle from your last week’s reading or just anything else in general. this week I’ve read The Damned and am currently reading Golden Son. I don’t really know what my thinking here was tbh – I’m just wondering if Golden son is going to go terribly well – or terribly not!!! Not long till I find out… so Greek masks (very poorly sketched – sorry!)

Art it Up. This is a weekly meme hosted by Tabitha over at Not Yet Read. The idea being to see if you can come up with some inspiration for a little sketch or doodle from your last week’s reading or just anything else in general. this week I’m reading the wonderful Iron Ghost by Jen Williams. I love this book so far! The diagram is only a tiny sample of one particularly nasty lair that crops up in the story – a nest of giant centipedes and instead of 3 – there’s 3,000! And they need to collect food for their…. no, sorry, no spoilers. Don’t be put off – this is only a tiny part of the story and it is totally gripping – plus Wyverns and Griffins and Wydrin!

Art it Up. This is a weekly meme hosted by Tabitha over at Not Yet Read. The idea being to see if you can come up with some inspiration for a little sketch or doodle from your last week’s reading or just anything else in general. this week I’ve been reading Atlanta Burns by Chuck Wendig and The Ice Twins by S K Tremayne. I’ve taken my inspiration from Atlanta Burns and tried a sketch of Whitey!

Art it Up. This is a weekly meme hosted by Tabitha over at Not Yet Read. The idea being to see if you can come up with some inspiration for a little sketch or doodle from your last week’s reading or just anything else in general. this week I’ve been reading No.5 and 6 of Karina Cooper’s St Croix Chronicles (I already sketched a big top last week). So for inspiration this week I’m going nice and easy – the Fantasy Review Barn tough travelling topic for the day is ‘pets’. Today is a Dude doodle – or a Dude’ll – basically put, my dog doesn’t like to behave – below is his rule number one – ‘1. You threw it not me!’

Art it Up. This is a weekly meme hosted by Tabitha over at Not Yet Read. The idea being to see if you can come up with some inspiration for a little sketch or doodle from your last week’s reading or just anything else in general. this week I’ve reviewed The Just City by Jo Walton – which is all about a city that aims to be just and also I’ve read Karina Cooper’s Tempered (No.4 of the St Croix Chronicles review to follow – 1, 2 and 3 here). If you’ve read any of the St Croix books you’ll understand my circus ‘big top’. For the Just City I went for the Statue of Justice – but I’ve changed it and tipped the scales! Both very good reads. Sketches – well, a bit ropey but strangely I enjoy having a scribble. Now, check out Not Yet Read for all the goodies!
