101225 Sketchy Xmas Day

Not having family in town or not having family commitments till evening was the perfect opportunity for Wendy and I to have a little sketching adventure.

It was the MOST GLORIOUS weather and we appreciated it all the more as the forecast hadn't been looking great for the past week or so!


This is the "drawing Office' and one of my favourite buildings in Sydney I think!!! It was really nice that of the handful of people on the island on Saturday, one of them was a man that worked in it. Would have loved to hear some more of his stories from the days when this island was a happening place!




Later that day....

I did try to sketch my Xmas dinner...but it is was a bit hard.....

Quick outline and then paint from memory later when there was a pause in the conversation.

BTW. I have discovered that I struggle to sketch Xmas dinner every year
