I went drawing with friends twice last week - very different venues but both shared the same characteristics of sketching in company and just as important, wide ranging discussions over lunch in a congenial café !
On Tuesday there were
7 of us drawing in the V&A 20th century design galleries ( finding your way there and to the members room afterwards even more perplexing than usual with building work closures!)
I drew Ron Arad chair '
Soft little heavy' in blue biro then attempted to capture the contrasting textures of a
'mobius' basket and
pewter bowl in graphite.
On Thursday I met up with Hazel at Standard Quay in Faversham and introduced her to the delights of
Iron Wharf. I've taken loads of
photos and keep meaning to go drawing there but having company gave me the push to actually do so. So many boats in different states of crumbliness, it's very hard to choose and settle down to draw. I'll be back soon with bigger sheets of paper and my paints.
