For lack of a better name! Whilst driving around the town, attending to some errands, I spotted these two people walking with sticks on their heads. It was a Mom and a daughter (from what I could see). So I trailed them and managed to get a few good shots of them from my camera. I always keep my camera with me, in case I see anything interesting.
I did a rough sketch of the Mom (see left).
I then decided to do a charcoal sketch of her in another surrounding, including a very cool bicycle that I spotted resting against one of the trees in town. It wasn't too happy with the composition of the first one, so decided to a second one with a different composition. It did seem to come out a bit better. I think I will have to turn these into a painting though.
