Now everyone can see who is the hat-lady! :-) Yay! Congrats on winning the cricket :-( Hope PKR is much better.<BR/><BR/>Gillian, the little boy took no notice of me, besides a tired/bored stare. The only person who noticed me drawing was a food vendor - he liked it! I did enjoy doing the bottom stadium sketch - the top one, on site, was just too hard for me!Cathy Gatlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05004501411878060668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859449716295663213.post-28772936356719949512009-03-02T16:40:00.000+02:002009-03-02T16:40:00.000+02:00I feel as though I've been at The Wanderers with y...I feel as though I've been at The Wanderers with you! These are great, C - very successful buildings and stadium. Hard to believe they made you irritable. Great people drawings too - love the bokkie colours - green and yellow - and the little boy on his dad's lap - with the sharp look to (his) left... Was he curious about what YOU were drawing?Gillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03994846953739263248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859449716295663213.post-83573917963172019562009-03-02T12:33:00.000+02:002009-03-02T12:33:00.000+02:00These are fantastico.

I loved no 1 till I saw no 3... but think one was good practice for the other. We've been away all w/e but PKR is catching up with it on the box now..in Aus; funny for me to be looking at your sketches from on-the-spot.Viviennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10002012531162874560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859449716295663213.post-22071577108909627912009-03-02T03:40:00.000+02:002009-03-02T03:40:00.000+02:00Hi Cathy.

It's so interesting to read how you're finding what you like and thinking about what to do; and about the logistical issues too--how much can a person carry and use? The last sketch is lovely--I love the gingham field. I think you enjoy drawing people most though, judging from the excellent results!laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11999450626008299190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859449716295663213.post-79089116801366133802009-03-01T16:13:00.000+02:002009-03-01T16:13:00.000+02:00The people paintings and the bottom of the stadium...The people paintings and the bottom of the stadium with all the color have much more energy and feeling of excitement - something going on - than the top - you can tell you struggled with all the bits and pieces.
