I was on a cycle path in Edinburgh but can you name this exit, and the street it leads too?
Can you tell me where in Edinburgh I have sketched?
Your comment will not show up until I reveal the answer tomorrow morning. Get your answer in before midnight tonight and I will pick a random winner from all correct entries by this time tomorrow.
This week’s prize is a screen printed tea towel featuring my illustration of The Shore in Leith.
Keep an eye on my facebook and twitter feeds for clues if they are needed later today, and remember you can also see my weekly competition in the printed version of the Edinburgh Evening News each Monday.
Keep looking up and noticing the beauty in the everyday, you never know where I will be sketching next!
My Edinburgh sketched merchandise and high quality prints are available on my Etsy shop and I am available for commissions too. Email me at contact@www.edinburghsketcher.com for more details.
I just loved the sunshine on this ornate stone carving and the shadows leading down.
This sandstone entrance to the Water of Leith cycle path is on ewhaven Road and is so beautiful. Have a look next time you are passing.
The cycle path/ walkway runs along underneath the road from Leith to Trinity and beyond and is a great way to get around the north of Edinburgh traffic free.
Lets hope this sunshine sticks around highlighting the cities stunning architecture.
I was out for a jog the other day when I was stuck by the glorious blue skies contrasting against the sandy stone coloured bridge, mottled with shadows.
The bridge carries Great Junction Street over the old railway path, now a busy cycle route into Leith.
I love these paths that criss-cross around north Edinburgh, under and over the traffic filled streets, they provide a quiet nature filled walk through the heart of the city.
This sketch was drawn with a fine liner black pen and then colour added using a waterbrush and small watercolour pallet.
Up and out for an early walk along the cycle path this morning with the twins. We’re heading to Craigleith to meet up with Mummy for lunch.
What a glorious Sunday in the capital, the sun is shining down on us now. Anyone recognise this bridge we crossed along the way? It was a perfect spot for a break and the kids to have their snack.
Sketches, news and family life in Scotland's capital city.
