Drawing in France




I've just returned from a week's holiday in the South of France.  I didn't do much drawing as I was too busy swimming in the sea and eating ice creams!  I did however find the time to sketch some of the beautiful buildings in the village we stayed in.  It's called Bidache and is in Le Pays Basques near the Pyrenees.
I also did one sketch on the flight home!

Cambridge Folk Festival Drawings 2012
























Here's a selection of drawings from my sketchbook which I took along to the folk festival this year.  I was struggling to get into my sketching until I went along to the festival drawing workshop run by Jim Butler and John Holder.  They suggested starting off with hats (you do see quite a selection) so I started straight away while watching King Charles at The Den and continued the next day too!
