The cruising continues.

I managed to do some drawing last night, started a caricature which I'll continue tonight! I've managed a couple of sketches today and some interesting photographs. The first is Chiswick bridge which I drew whilst we were taking on water but had to go once we were full as the water point was by lock.

This next picture is a detail from one of the railings at Hampton Court Palace where we are currently moored! Hoping to get more pictures and drawings tomorrow!

I made a few errors but as it was in ink I was unable to adjust the length so it's a bit truncated. Otherwise, I quite like it.

Oxford!

Spent the day in Oxford. Managed a short travel - less than an hour. Visited the natural history museum and Pitt Rivers museum. Dusted off the watercolours and painted a river scene overlooking Christchurch meadow where we moored for the night. Picture to follow, once we get a reliable 3G signal or return home!
Excuse the red blob, I have trace on my scanner! i.e. red paint.
Now we're back I can also share this wonderful Carmen Miranda headdress made from tin cans!

Isn't it fabulous? I simply adore the "Boddingtons" banana and "Tango" orange! It was in a section of art made from everyday junk! I love the Pitt Rivers museum. Must go there to sketch and be inspired once the children are back at school!
