94-2862 – Trekking gear (Day 6)

The prompt for Day 6 of #Inktober2024 was “Trek”, so I decided to sketch some of the camping and trekking gear we bought a while back from #Decathlon. This is a little cooking pan which includes two bowls (with plastic cutlery) that nestle nicely inside, making it more compact for storage. The handle also splits and folds back to hold the lid in place.

Yoga in the arboretum

Here are the sketches I did on our last day at Womad. The first was done while my wife and daughter did yoga in the Arboretum (the festival is held in the grounds of Charlton Park, in Wiltshire). In another area, some of us joined ‘Sew-mad’ – where people were sewing bunting (along the theme of the cosmos?) and I did my second sketch. The third sketch was done at the “Taste The World” stage, where artists performed, were interviewed and cooked their favourite dishes (in this one I tasted mango ceviche). The last sketch was some during the performance of Enji who is Mongolian but sings jazz and bossa nova. The highlight of the night for me was to watch Baaba Maal!

91-2793-4 – WOMAD day 2

Good morning Womad

Here are the sketches I did on our second day at the Womad festival. The first is of the view from our campsite – where we all woke up feeling like we hadn’t slept well because it was surprisingly cold at night. The second one was done while I watched and listened to some poetry readings, while I sketched this Jonny Fluffy Punk was reading. Later I listed to Lemn Sissay at the same spot. The other artists I watched that day included Alison Goldfrapp and 0.
