As I drew this, sitting on a log on the beach, the sun was setting and in the background I could hear reggae music, the sound of a group of guys loudly slapping down dominoes and an evangelical preacher of some sort praising the lord (and his congregation calling out hallelujah every now and then). Wafting in the breeze is the smell of the days catch being sold nearby and the salty smell of the sea. Yes I’m very very lucky to be here and paid for it to boot!

Last night I chose a restaurant rated highly in Trip Advisor – it turned out to be very nice and I had a tasty dish of ravioli stuffed with spinach and cheese. The lady serving me was complimentary about my sketch and even took a photo. In the drawing is their pizza oven – obviously wood burning (that’s a log bin above it).

Last night I ate out at a nice little place called Dar Bistro & Books. It has great veggie food and a nice warm, cosy and arty atmosphere. I managed to squeeze in this ink and watercolour sketch while I was waiting for my dish of couscous.

Another quick sketch while waiting for dinner – done in water-soluble ink and watercolour.
