Experimenting

I've always wanted to take photographs of a row of beach huts and I got the opportunity at Southwold in June :o)
I decided to have a play with this one and converted it to a pencil drawing, then coloured it with my lovely Copics. The background is a photograph of the stoney beach at Caister, taken during that same holiday :o)
Just as a matter of interest, this is the very same row of beach huts that featured in Coast and had Dr Alice Roberts sitting drawing them, but I didn't know it at the time I was there :o)

Hi Jackie, I love your photo and how you have turned into a drawing! I have also taken a photo of these beach huts at Southwold but from the otherside looking at the front of them. I love beach huts so I think they make a fantastic card!
Thanks for the lovely comment you left about my layout.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Hugs Lynsey:)
