Diary: 14th Aug. Abersoch
Yet another sunny day! Brilliant
light - worked on main beach
directly below tent - made
longest line/ work ever. Enjoyed it.
Then made edge/ shadow/ light.
Couple of people came along - one
very enthusiastic! As I left 2 kids
came - thought they would stamp
on it but instead continued
it on!! Lovely.
Didn't have time to draw
- just worked so much.
