We started the day with a demonstration painting by David, he really is very good. Then it was suggested we should get on with our own paintings since we would have to submit at least one piece for appraisal tomorrow afternoon. Since Maria has already finished one piece I thought it was only fair that I should have a go. I think I might have to get my own set, it really isn’t fair I should have to fight for equal time.
Anyway, I’m rather pleased with my picture.
You do get messy though, I don’t know if I’ll ever get all this pastel out of my fur. I saw someone else working with latex gloves but I don’t think they make them in my size and besides I rather like getting right in there with my paws.
By the end of the day both Maria and I were surprisingly tired, all this concentration wears you out. John had an easy day, sat around reading and popped into Whitby briefly. I’d been asking for some jet ever since we arrived and he at last got around to getting some.
It’s our last evening in the restaurant. The food has been lovely, I think we’ll all miss it.
