Description Sketched on location back in the summer of 1993.
Pencil on A3 cartridge paper. I am re uploading a better quality image.
The scene is Portreath harbour on the north coast of Cornwall and was drawn during my time as a student in the local art college and was done as part of our course work. Other paintings and drawing done for this project can be seen here [link] and here [link]

Thanks Nathalie, i appreciate that. They worked us hard and got the best out of us in Uni ... got lazy since though plus it was such a beautifully inspiring place to live at the time

Nothing to do with lazy I think. At least, comparing it to dance in Uni and later on, it's not a matter of becoming lazy, but being able to work and grow into your own style more, becรกuse in school you were pushed to find your interests and boundaries. I'd only consider it being lazy if you'd never try to challenge yourself anymore.

That's very true. I don't have tutors to push me anymore but i have you and everyone else here to do it instead I am beginning to do it again though and can't wait to get outside in nice weather and do some more fresh pieces.. bring on spring and summer, it still thinks it's winter here in the south west of England.

We've had our first beautiful day out here today. It's lovingly called 'Skirts-Day', because that is the first day in the spring that the girls start wearing skirts again.
Hope some of the sun will be coming your way too soon!

Another gorgeous sketch! I really like it. I'm glad you re-uploaded it because I'd completely missed these before. I really like how you captured the light here.

Fantastically detailed for on location sketching, in fact, it almost feels like an insult to call them sketches.

Thanks Gary, Final year in Uni and i think we were all at the top of our game then. I am still extremely proud of them both for what i achieved .. no where near able to do that again yet but pencils will always be my first choice every time and where i feel most comfortable.
