Really like this very much, Derek. Such spontaneity and atmosphere, and I love your excellent use of washes to create the right tones and accents.

Just noticed classic typo "prefect" weather. Thanks Russ, the gang liked it too. Luckily I can still portray a decent scene en plein aire.

2 pages of A4 sketch book last Friday at a caravan rally I organised at the well known tourist spot opf Netley Abbey, nr Southampton. All vans the same make, different models and sooo cute. Ours is the RH one, with the only flag of it's design anywhere, guess who designed it. 14 units there over 4/5 days and prefect weather.
