2009 Beach Sketches IV

Yesterday I promised you the godfather of the beach. I’m a man of my word. Let’s just hope I don’t get whacked for sharing this sketch with you of the patriarch of a family that sat beside me on the beach in Kitty Hawk, NC for a week last month. No, I did not make this up. He was really sitting there like he was large and in charge, glistening in the sun.

Like I said, he sat there presiding over his family. This second sketch is of the “godfather’s” son flying a kite that looked like a Blue Angels’ jet plane.

Thanks for coming to the blog this week to see the life drawings of my summer travels. If you are out and about, be careful of your appearance should you encounter me. When I’m out and about, I often have my sketchbook under my arm ready to record interesting people! YOU could be next!
