This Pub caught our attention on our first day out trekking about. I forgot to note its name and my picture did not reveal it either. The inside was as 'fetching' as the facade. I had fish and chips (which I could not find from street vendors?) and my friend had a hamburger "well done" as the waitress insisted! Later I advised my friend about mad cow disease concerns ;-) We had quite a laugh
about that. The Cass Art Store was right across the street (where I indulged in gorgeous supplies I did not need - well I went in because I Needed a pencil sharpener!!) I did buy several things on Sale, and the price seemed soooo reasonable as I ignored the exchange rate of almost $2 for 1 British Stirling - oh well I Had to have it all!
And of Course Westminster Abby - my first European cathedral - lovely setting in this sketch from my picture -

Love these London sketches, especially Westminster Abby. Glad you had fun buying art supplies. Of course you needed them all, and I will defend you on that point.
LOL!!!! Absolutely! I to, bought supplies while in London in April. I bought a travel set of Schmincke paints and I love them!! Yes, they were expensive with the rate of exchange, but on the other hand those paints get used a lot more than others I have.
Great drawings/paintings,too. Did you go on the London Eye? We didn't, as it as pouring rain.
Awesome sketches! I really enjoyed them all. Seems like you had a nice visit in London.
Wonderful sketches! I am enjoying your sketches so much.
OH MAN! The pub! the river! the Abby! The TAlent!
Sandy,
I am so thrilled to see your London sketches! You must be having so much fun reliving your trip - and to think you haven't even taken us to Paris yet.
your sketches are lovely! I also got caught up with your earlier posts and have enjoyed my time on your site immensely.
Hi Sandy - all of these are wonderful - but this latest batch is my favorite. I'm really looking forward to thenext ones!
Sandy! These are so so interesting to read about and see -- and cara, they're beautifully done! Line, form, perspective --- whatever you're doing with your art, keep it up -- they sing!
Beautiful sketches. Like your commentary, too. Brings them to life.
