Sketchbook page 4

Hi all, I trust everyone has had a good summer and is looking forward to a new semester. As you can see I have been working on good old paper. I have been trying to do a page a day, however the weekends are somewhat more hectic , so it is a page every other day. Todays page will probably be uploaded tomorrow morning.
In reply to your comment the other day Jon, the holiday was good although a good 3 days too short, as I ran out of time to just chill and sketch. However I came back with about 350-400 reference photos, so not a total loss in that respect. Edit: Just a note about this page.... I tried a drawing of a theme with and without reference material I think it is obvious which one is which lol

Scanner has washed out the tonality a little, such is the joy of using blue pencils to draw with.

Amalfi Coast here I come

Well guys tomorrow I depart to Sorrento for a week, so unless I find a Wi-Fi spot then no updates for a while. Whilst trying to relax I will be visiting either Pompeii or Herculaneum, climbing Mt Vesuvias and hopefully visiting the Emperors palace on Capri, so plenty of opportunity to grab some reference shots.

In between these little trips I hope to be exploring the back streets and cafes of Sorrento and indulging in some sketching and being all arty etc. lol.

So assuming I don't become all pre-occupied there should be plenty of updates soon.
