A couple of sketches of Herne Bay and Manston and Stone Hill Park and Manston Airport.

you can draw the clock tower at Herne Bay

try to photograph it or just walk away

well it has potential

my first attempt started out too big.

a streetscape from The Pantry is much easier and more relaxed than drawing the clock tower with the traffic whizzing by

The place at Manston, I guess now even what you call it will get someone’s back up, well the issue, where the owners want to build Stone Hill Park http://www.stonehillpark.co.uk/ and various people including a lot of the local politicians want TDC to use cpo powers to buy the land there to turn it into an airfreight hub and aircraft scrapping facility, has gone into overdrive.

I may ramble on here. 

Herne Bay today

Does anyone know of any café, pub or restaurant in Herne Bay that has a view that would be good for sketching from?

It was too windy to sketch outside today and I just couldn’t find anywhere inside to sketch from, so no sketch.

Some interesting shops still trading in Herne Bay

Including a toy shop

I bought a few books for my bookshop
