Painted in those circumstances you did pretty darn good

Thanks Michael, quite a lot of the group stayed in the cafe.

I like it Derek, I hope you enjoyed a pint too, if the pub was open of course.

Very impressive to do this plein-air and not from a photo...

Thanks Ellen, yes it was open but too early for me and they don't sell real ale. Thanks Jan, that's what I do when out door sketching.

Nice sketch ,which depicts a normal wet and blustery British summers day. Well done, and well done on braving the weather.

Anyway Derek it has the feel one could walk down that street. The building in the foreground higher I think.

I like it Derek , it's captures one of those fleeting moments in time ...., Thanks for pointing out my misplaced shadow now rectified and well spotted

It's really good Derek, I can see the wind howling and the rain battering. Your buildings are amazing and the cars too. Hope you had a nice cup of something hot afterwards.

Thanks Andre, it is Wimbledon just after Glasto after all. Cheers John Thanks Dermot, hope you didn't mind Thanks Satu, they actually gave ...gave me a free cup of coffee for being our there.

I didn't mind at all Derek I paint in a trance and move onto the next so it's great to have a second pair of eyes

You did really well, Derek - a lot of mood coming through on this piece.

Cheers Dermot and Seok

A nice sketch Derek

Urban sketching group on a very wet SUMMER morning. I occupied a table outside ONeills pub. It was under cover but outside, so I soon got cold but managed to get this work done. Struggled a bit with the perspective, silly me - it's my thing.

Eleventyeight as my hashing pals called my new age recently, it's supposed to sound better. Trying to paint every day in acrylics using only expired credit/debit cards, and partially succeeding as they're only for me and not show these days.
