I had to highlight only a small part of the castle to stop my waiting family from getting too bored and cold.

The farmhouse owner walked past as I was drawing. She said it dates back to the 16th or 17th century.

I thought I’d quickly draw this gate. It turned out harder than expected. As usual I underestimated all the classical mouldings.

The driver of one of the diggers stopped another from driving off until I had finished sketching his digger! He also asked me if he could start working when I finished!

I love drawing cables. There’re plenty in Albania. I haven’t exagerated the number! I really tried to draw each cable accurately!

In May, I had the chance to do some bicycling-sketching and made my way to an interesting location near the Rideau Canal. The spot is known as Brown's Inlet and a long time ago, it was part of the grand canal system that Col. John By constructed. Today it's a lovely pond surrounded by an upscale community and a collection of interesting trees and shrubs. The bike paths led me directly to its shore where I was able to start this sketch.

En mai, j'ai eu la chance de faire de la vélo et des croquis, et je me suis rendu dans un endroit intéressant près du canal Rideau. L'endroit est connu sous le nom de Brown's Inlet et il y a longtemps, il faisait partie du grand système de canaux construit par le colonel John By. Aujourd'hui, c'est un bel étang entouré d'une communauté haut de gamme et d'une collection d'arbres et d'arbustes intéressants. Les pistes cyclables m'ont conduit directement à sa rive où j'ai pu commencer ce croquis.

One of the Karlsruhe urban sketchers thought of me when she saw this. I had to draw it.

Before I came to Amsterdam, I had this view in my head. Plenty oy opportunities to draw 17th century houses, next to a canal, with bikes.

There was a forest fire this year.

Just managed to squeeze this in before the tower closed.

I was on my way to draw something else but I had to stop and capture this before it disappears. A moment of Durlach history.

Ich habe eben gehört das Wunder Design- und Kunstmarkt abgesagt ist.
