I took advantage of a sunnyish morning to go out sketching with my pastels. In this view looking out over Leigh-on-Sea marshes, you can see Canvey Island in the distance, and the north Kent coast in the far distance beyond the Thames estuary. The weather being changeable, the light was forever changing. I quite liked it when the middle distance was in shadow and the foreground bathed in sunshine, so this is what I tried to capture.
It was also rather windy so I had to hold the page down as I drew and my hands got very grubby :)
