Sketch of La Trappiste from Chocolate Café in Canterbury

Here is today’s sketch of La Trappiste from Chocolate Café in Canterbury. I think I am trying to develop a style with art, not an easy thing as I don’t have a mental picture of what I want to achieve.

The group on the right got nearer to what I wanted to express, but unfortunately I didn’t have time to colour it in.

Trying to capture looking down onto what you are painting is a tricky one the most glaring error being the writing on the window which should have sloped down.

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
