Here is another sketch done in Manchester. On Tuesday we walked around town visiting the Cathedral, the Central Library and Manchester Museum. We had lunch sitting outside the Arndale shopping centre and I managed to start this sketch (I added the colour at home) before it started to rain. Two local lads had a chat with me as I sketched, starting off by saying my sketch was “sick” (slang for impressive or outstandingly good)…then discussing how much I sold my sketches for (generally I don’t sell them} and moving on to boxing and Manny Pacquiao (because I told them I live in the Philippines).

Manchester has such an interesting reputation that I forget it has architecture like that.
It’s a great place to sketch!
