A great example of how to sketch a bridge, this is excellent Alan .

Splendid sketching Alan.

Super sketching Alan. We visited Stratford on Avon today and were watching barges negotiating the locks there, fascinating. Great subject.

Successfully accomplished Alan.

Lovely sketch so spontaneous!

I never get bored of looking at them either

Super sketch.

Great sketching.

Bridges all have their own charm and I love how you have sketched a view within a view Alan.

As I already commented on the Forum, this is a great sketch of a quite complicated subject and I like it, as I like all your work Alan.

Love the subject of this plein air sketch- captured perfectly.

Plein air pen and ink sketch in an A4 toned grey sketch pad. I always enjoy drawing these, I’ve drawn so many different ones over the decades… never get bored with them.
