It's Friday here


Had to give myself a little reality check this morning.  Feeling homesick and on edge.  Then it hit me, there are only a few more days left of this adventure, better kick it into gear and make the most of this amazing opportunity. 

Did a walk in the morning then spent the rest of the day sketching and doing a bit of laundry.  Later went and had a truly sinful dinner of lasagne and sketched some more!

The tour fell through so I hired a cab that will take me to Beynac in the morning. It's a hillside village with a castle, yes, I'm finally going to play in a castle!   Should be a great experience and a wonderful opportunity for many more photos.

We had rain today, the first time in about 3 weeks, amazing huh!

More and more I see your work with perspective is really paying off. We have to get you in front of more venues like this - not just what can be set up in your studio. I really like your compositions and sketches. They all seem to tell an interesting story I'd like to know more about.

Beynac castle is where they shot 'Ever After'! See if you can spot the areas they filmed :-D

Also, the movie 'Chocolat' was filmed in the town areas.

Have a fun castle adventure!

Your sketches are great! Have checked in on you every day and glad to see you are getting all the goodie out of your trip.
(I would probably be getting tired and homesick about now too.)
