The Late Great Paul Shardlow 29/10/1946 - 8/10/2022

In October of this year, we lost one of our very own, Mr. Paul Shardlow himself. He was a creative giant among us, and he was a member of our sketch club. With his acerbic English wit, and equally sharp pencils, he carved out a professional career that left an indelible footprint in the world of entertainment.

When I logged into the Sketchclub blog today, I discovered that in 2018 the late Paul Shardlow had attempted to post in Sketchclub. For what ever reason he never completed the post. So, I am completing this post for him. In a way, Paul has gifted us with yet one more look into his wonderful, humorous and creative mind.

Found a few hours to put this together from our 3/9 Sketch Club.

And, so it begins...the Shopping Spree

We looked up and spotted here. I said, how about that one...with the bun.😜

We Spotted a Spotted Dachshund

Evan spotted the dog first, having remarked that he had not seen a Dachshund with spots. The owner, noticing the appreciation of our entire table, beamed with delight. And, that was a "mark" for today.

It had been a while since I had posted a sketch club mark, but suffice it to say we have been diligently drawing every week. It's been eleven years since we first started our club, and we are still going strong.

One of the topics during our conversations today, "Drawing is supposed to be fun."
