This was today at our beach. I did a sketch yesterday but was not satisfied with the way it came out. I think this one is a lot better. I've added a couple of photos of the progress and the final sketch.

Nautilus


This is a nautilus shell on our balcony. I looked left and happened to liked the way the light was striking it (with afternoon sun from behind). Tried capture the transparency of the light though the shell. I'll try again next time

Fishing Skiff

Went to the beach to do a sketch, had not walked 3 paces when I saw this fishing skiff that had  just came in from a day's work. I was halfway though the sketch when they were about  to move it.  Had to beg the fisherman not to who was gracious enough to leave it "as it was" long  enough for me to finish...
