2168 – Messing about with boats

Here is the second sketch I did on our long weekend at the coast. Below the place we were staying (you have to go down a lot – and I mean a lot – of narrow steps, to get to the sea) there was this boat and jet-ski pulled up onto the hard standing. I know nothing about boats but I do love sketching them. I spent quite a bit of my time as I sketched this, chatting to a guy selling decorated blankets…it’s always nice to get a bit of feedback.

42-1360 – Sails on the beach

Before I left TCI I decided to take a last walk on the beach. I walked from where I was staying towards Grace Bay – and easily got in my 10,000 steps. This is the spot I stopped at – where there are these little catamarans for rent. The owners kindly warned me they were taking in the sails…and asked if I didn’t mind as they could see I was sketching. Then they came over, made a few nice comments and said the boats would be back out on the beach the next morning if I wanted to draw them again…what a pity I wasn’t able to!
