It was hard to know how to do a sketch in here - so we decided on the doorway. Eza was still going on her version so I decided to study one of the waterlilies while scribbling with pencils - this is a case where the process is far more important than the end result!
We sat for an hour sketching - after the Opera on Day 1 we needed to continue choosing the most 'fun' (complicated) buildings we could. No way I was going to attempt adding watercolour pencil to this one... Missing my paint tim but it is nice to have a B&W sketch.
This is one of the rare sketches that I did a mud map for before sketching - see next sketch.
On the left is the mud map that i did. Although this took a while it made the actual sketch heaps easier. My goal of the trip was to draw the correct number of modillions - I have realised that it is not that hard - just got to work out how many per bay.
On the right - really didn't have time for this but I just had to record in sketch where we had lunch in passing...missing my paints but our next stop was going to be an art store,
