New Plymouth New Zealand [RESULTS] under the mountain
Thanks all for your encouraging comments, it will keep us on the streets.
A couple of pics of us refuelling
Jackie at work
Some of us at lunch at the Landing (others still out nobly drawing). Note the Tip Top icecream sign in the background. Remember to have some when you come to NZ
(Scott, Jackie, Trevor, Paul, Tricia)
Brian our Canadian, with a well deserved top-up at Espresso at the end of the day. All that mountain bike riding to get to those red dairies - needs some feeding!
Eileen and Jackie having a cuppa tea.

Merci beacoup, thanks to each of you for your thoughts. We had plenty of sun we could have shared. It would have been fun if some of you could have joined us.
Two weeks earlier we had been down sketching the carvers

Re: New Plymouth New Zealand [RESULTS] under the mountain
Thanks everyone for the comments. It was a nice sunny day, but a bit windy. Some of us sketched and then joined for lunch, and others just carried on and didn't stop until a cuppa at the end of the day.
Here are two more sketches from me:
This is a lamppost outside the Puke Ariki Library, while Scott and I were waiting to see who else turned up.
I tried to draw people, but I found every time I got ready to go , the person got up and walked off. Trevor said he had the same problem. This girl was sitting reading, but as soon as I was organised she got up and crossed the road. So here is a quick sketch to try and catch her before she got away!

To provide some perspective, here is one of Brian's from a bit further round from where we were sketching
Re: New Plymouth New Zealand [RESULTS] under the mountain
Wonderful sketches of all the corner stores that are slowly being lost to the big chains. They all have such character and you all did such a great job on them. Thanks so much for sharing your work.
Re: New Plymouth New Zealand [RESULTS] under the mountain
Wait a minute...I almost missed the super sketches and photos on the second page. Good work!!!

Re: New Plymouth New Zealand [RESULTS] under the mountain
I like Jackie's god of the wind. Brian's shoreline was good too, but the sky is weird. Are skies really like that in NZ? Mark Fletcher , Tallahassee FL USA
