making the most of the fine weather, we walked 8 kms fromWilliamstown Beach to Altona yesterday. Sat down to sketch the surrounds at a quiet and secluded spot on the Kororoit Creek - pelicans , black swans, egrets, ducks, masked lapwings.... all enjoying the day as much as we were.

Winkarlin Beach

Managed a quick watercolor sketch today. This  view, although in an awkward spot, was worthy of a sketch,  and subsequently, I  found myself in a rather uncomfortable position for the remaining 10 minutes. Squatting over a rocky path beneath meant I had to get down on my haunches and try to get atleast something down on paper. All the while, I heard a kookaburra laughing near me, high above in a tree.
