Today’s sketch of Sunshine on St Leonard’s Street. Ink and watercolour. Original £65, prints from £25. Message me if you’d like one and if they are still there you can see process clips in my stories. Great to see some sunshine in the city today ☀️😊👍

What a day, wet and windy in Edinburgh but still some gorgeous colours in the sky. I find a quick doodle between meetings is the perfect refresh and reset for my mind. I never regret taking the time to draw. Have you tried a lunchtime sketch to destress?

Great to have you on board Mark @edinsketcher - and hope you enjoyed it all as much as we did.
Look out for the billboards featuring my sketches and telling the great stories from community projects the @edfests are working on. I was so pleased to be part of the Festival City Stories project with Festivals Edinburgh and @buildhollywood Scotland. edinburghfestivalcity.com/ab…
