Here are three efforts that very late but fun time evening:
Dome in Florence
double spread in Sennelier watercolours
St Peter's Rome
Went a bit wrong with the St Peter's full colour when I added three arches of a bridge at the bottom. Just did not like them so heavily drawn in ink. So guess what? - I stuck a piece of selected colour paper from Anita's card supplies and wrote on the top. !! There's always an answer!!
Corner of St Peter's Rome
borrowing Anita's sepia water soluble ink pen
If we keep doing this over the next 6 months. maybe we will feel comfortable sketching in the streets amongst all the tourists!!

Nice sketches, Joan. What a nice way to get ready for a trip to Italy!
These sketches are so vibrant and full of detail too, Joan! What a wonderful travel journal you are going to have!
Joan, I paged through your beautiful book on the right! What a wonderful and colorful record! Good luck with it!
Like always, your sketches are very good, especially the last one ( I like that colour)!- While sketching in crowded places (like in Portugal, maybe you remember my blog entry) I have always had much fun and sometimes, very nice conversations!
Thanks for commenting. On looking at my screen they all look crooked to me!!
Thanks Marie - your comment re my book prompted me to add that a click on the book cover enables you to see a preview of the first 15 pages. Glad you liked it.
I'll go back Claudia and look for your Portugal post.
