Today I took a walk down my local beach with my family and made sketches of my mum, sister and our dog as they sat on a bench overlooking the ocean. I haven’t just sat and sketched people, objects and scenery for quite sometime and simply wanted to stretch my old arty fingers. I sketched my mother and sister on the bench in various positions in a continual line drawing technique, which became a running joke because of how they thought my drawings were bizarre, it was a hilarious day. When drawing I was paying attention to the folds of the clothing and when I was drawing my puppy Peaches I was paying attention to her fast wriggling motion as she paced around chewing a stick.
