A good read.   12" x 9"
A great source for figure studies on holiday are people reading, quick pencil sketches can be undertaken with the knowledge they won't be moving too much as they are engrossed in their novel or newspaper. I always take lots of photos as well not just for the color reference but also for the detail.

My painting, "Reflection", was selected as part of the FAV15% (jury's favorite 15% of the entries) in the February 2014 BoldBrush Painting competition. This honor means that I might be featured in http://informedcollector.com/ in the coming months.

This is the first painting from material gathered from our trip to Tenerife, I'm having to juggle a few jobs because I've got quite a lot of illustration work on at the moment.
A man and his dog stop for a look into the sea at the harbors edge, lovely early morning light.
