It has been a strange few months now since the world was asked to stay at home. I’m lucky to live near the beach and have found myself walking on the sands at low tide and crossing over the harbour which is half way along on my daily walk. The yachts have been kept up on the harbour for much longer than usual so it’s like they are all stranded too – all facing out and watching the sea where they would normally be.
In the early phase of lockdown we weren’t meant to stop other than momentarily, so I took a series of photos and drew from reference material – but it doesn’t have the same connection as drawing from life.
I’ll be out sketching again soon now that the lockdown has been eased – so will keep posting in my Instagram feed with work in progress and works for sale.
Stay safe all!
