London

It’s my last week in London. I’ve done some fun things and spent time with family. I’ve done a few sketches (not as many as I’d like!) and seen some new things. Who knew there was a green plant-filled conservatory at the Barbican!

I visited the Ditchling Museum of Art and Craft in East Sussex, and loved seeing the ceramics of Shoji Hamada.

I really enjoyed Ditchling village, too, with its wobbly old houses and tasty old-fashioned teatime! My first time trying Welsh Rarebit.

I drew with my nieces whenever I could, and we all sketched St Paul’s Cathedral together on a trip to the Tate Modern. I’ve missed drawing with them like this…

The weather hasn’t been great - a typical British winter, but there were a few days with bright skies, and fresh air to relish.

I have a few more days, and then it’s back to the Bay Area…
