We spent a lovely day in Glasgow yesterday wandering around familiar haunts (in the also familiar Glasgow rain...). The sun did come out though for a glorious few minutes just as we arrived at the Botanic Gardens. This was the first time I had seen Kibble Palace since its restoration and boy is it looking handsome.
I made a quick sketch sitting inside the main dome, with more very much appreciated encouragement from Kasia!
I'm still trying to learn to focus on capturing the 'idea' of something rather than specific detail.

There was lots of inspiration to be had, particularly in the fantastic ‘killer plants’ room (!) – the colours and structures of the pitcher plants in particular giving us lots of ideas for future projects… .
