The theme of three

March 24, 2026 | Leave your thoughts

This month inside my Sketching Adventure Community on Patreon we’ve been exploring the theme of ‘three’ and it’s been a lot of fun.

I am seeing ‘threes’ in lots of different aspects of my sketching including:

  • using a watercolour triad (discovering three colours which work together well and have enough pigment variation!)
  • sketching three objects
  • sketching scenes with 3 layers (this is a theme from my Travel Sketching course and I’m gearing up for a Live Version of this course in May)
  • using three passes when sketching with my current mixed media combo of Inktense, Tombows and ink.

I’m looking forward to sharing all my sketches from March in our usual monthly livestream for paid members of the community but here are a few little still life studies I did last week! Three objects in three passes.

Here’s a link to find out more about our community – we would love to have you join us and get inspired to build a sketching habit!
