204 - SEATON SLUICE - 02 - COLOURED PENCILS - 2008
I found an old pencil sketch I did in 1967 or 1968 (not sure) and I decided to use it as the basis of doing another brightly coloured pencil drawing.
In July 2009 I decided to upload a higher definition copy of this … hope you like it. It is not for sale … hints hints :)

Many thanks.

Lots of colour, shadows and the odd straight line (in the roof) – You’re hitting all the buttons Dave. (Never really knew what that meant but it sounds good.)
BLYTHART replied
Thanks Brian. I forgot to say that I dedicated the straight lines to Brian Towers, who was missing them … but bendy lines are here to stay, I’m afraid :)
Brian Towers
I’m a straight kinda guy…why does that sound so false? Ah yes, I remember; our ex-PM. I think you have a bent for curvey building Dave. Keep ‘em rolling!

Wonderful hatching on the bricks! I also like how the sky is mirrored in the hills.

Hello again Dave,
Wow, how brilliant these colours are! How sunny… Coloured pencils can offer much more than many people think. You show them! Wunderful!

Hello Dave,
I just had another good look at this and think it is so good that it should be included in the “Featured Work” section in our North East Group.
