This is the last of my posts about my trip to London! It’s been really fun re-living the trip with you guys!
This is a Thai restaurant where we had lunch toward the end of the trip.
I “collected” people on the Tube. I drew in the seat structures first and then I waited to see who sat down in front of me. This drawing was created over about 3 rides on the Tube and it was very fun-so many interesting characters! Almost everyone is on their phone and that goodness because that keeps them from spotting me (most of the time) even though I am just 3 or 4 feet from them!
The left side of the page here are a couple quick sketches from when we were at Kew Gardens-a giant Cyprus tree and a dragon guardian on their pagoda. On the right was the tableware at the Delaunay-an absolutely fabulous restaurant across from the theater where we saw “Tina Turner: The Musical”.
The stage curtain had Tina’s eyes (and hair) screen printed onto it. Very graphic and an interesting contrast with the green and gold baroque theater.
Mom sent over this photo she took from the 2nd floor of our flat of me sketching the Michelin Building. Can you see me?
I’m across the street from the frontage of the building on the steps under the red awning!
Here’s how one of those sketches came out!
I brought home Tunnock’s Tea cakes for my husband. Milk chocolate with marshmallow inside, they are too sweet for me!
Made it safely home! This is the view from my studio. Everything had grown in the 12 days I’d been gone-including the weeds and grass all over our gravel driveway. Still, it was good to be home and back in my studio. Hope all of you had a fabulous 4th of July!
