On Wookey Hole rough, A3 size. Initial washes in watercolour over the basic drawing, which will be my version of one of his en-plein-aire works in oil. Started today, but not going to be doing much as grand daughter's 10th birthday party and she will receive the polar bear work I did for her a month or so ago.

Further work defining shapes - can you see what it is yet?
With Sarah, Phil, Ellen, Rose the dentist, and the granddaughter whose name I forget.

Bit more work, now slow as the rough paper does not help my technique but I like the results - I think. Starting to block in vehicles and tweak stuff.

Thanks AG. I aim to finish it tomorrow, not bothered about the white spaces left.

Great work Derek, don't over paint it. I think your most difficult task now will be deciding when it is finished and should be left alone.

Thanks Peter, funny you say that but I made that decision earlier today. I think it's done. I'll probably post it in the gallery soon. Final thoughts anyone?
