A problem which other artists don’t seem to have encountered
to the degree I do is when sketching in bars and cafés there often isn’t enough
light to see what you have drawn properly.
The first of this evening’s sketches looked ok to me in the
dim lighting, but looks pretty awful under the bright light needed to
photograph it.
The second one I did with an India ink fibre tip (Pitt pen
size S) the contrast is such that you can see what you have drawn in very low
lighting conditions.
Not sure how one would get the colour right as it's difficult to tell with watercolour even in bright lighting.

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.
