nicely observed and sketched Derek I like the cut off figure to the Right lovely composition

Lovely painting, Derek. Great composition.

A great little sketch Derek, will make a painting for sure, sounded like you had a good time on the Island, I know it well, my Grandparents lived there. I hope RJ enjoyed his day with you, of course he would!!!.

Lovely pale washes, Derek, with great colours on the cliffs. I think that your pen work is very delicate too.

Jennifer thanks, my pen work is created by holding the pen high up. Need must and it makes loose. David thanks, was going to add more of her and her partner but ran out of space. Thanks Jan, it was all there, Cheers Alan, it's grown on me over the years.

Good Derek, has a nice sense of scale.

A lovely sketch Derek, very effective

Thank you for the info' Derek!!! I always hold my pen as if writing - hence my heavy marks!!!! I shall hold it at the end next time, to try to get the delicacy that you have.

I love holiday snaps....these little sketches are better than photo's. I agree with David about the half figure on the right. Have you got lots more?

I'm not surprised they complimented this. As Alan says, I look forward to a painting!

Lovely Derek - you might also have been able to sell it to a passer-by.

Wonderful sketch, very vibrant

Lovely sketch Derek.

Cheers David, no prob Jennifer, thanks Fiona always more, Ta Gudrun, Adele, Ruthy, Carole and Henry

A view from high aspect as my wife went down to the beach. Many foreigners and all took a moment to stop by, comment and compliment.

About the Artist
Derek Snowdon

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.
