Sketching Wallace Pring Castle, against the clock, from Quayside Free House in Whitstable and I do Pot at the Horsebridge.

Here is the Whitstable pen and watercolour, an hour really isn’t long enough to drink a pot of tea, eat a substantial sandwich and do a sketch. Parking was the problem, I spent about half an hour driving around Whitstable – well mostly sitting in traffic jams – and wound up parking in the harbour car park. Maximum stay 2 hours £3, not ideal.
 It would have looked very different had I gone home and painted it from the photo


By the time I had bought a few books and done The Pot business, here is the link http://www.horsebridge-centre.org.uk/?q=node/8066 tomorrow’s the last day you can do this, photos below and well worth a visit, I only had an hour left.

Post a Comment

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
