On The Beach
Monday, July 5th, 2010We have been away camping again. It has been interesting getting used to living indoors after spending nearly two weeks in a tent. This is my favourite beach, in a mystery location! I also made another sketch near here, well more of a diagram as I only happened to have a tiny diary with me at the time. Strangely, the ‘diagram’ brings back more memories than this oil pastel. I hope to make my diagram into a painting but it will be a bit of an experiment working from something that’s mostly in my head. I really admire artists who can paint what’s in their mind’s eye as in my case it usually turns out to be a ‘frightful daub’ (which could say something about my mind, I suppose)!
