I just love these bottle trees, they are so improbable. When I went to find a photo to go with the sketch I realised that I had not taken the ones I had sketched but one way down the street in Roma. One of the problems of a/ going with an over active friend (who is a dear but doesnt understand about taking time out to draw) and b/ remembering what you should take ( discovering when you come home that half the stuff you thought you had taken isnt on the camera!).
Roma, where Jen lives is a lovely town, we did the tourist stuff and went to the big Rig, which is an oil rig, but they found gas and not a lot of oil, I am probably wrong on this but maybe Jen will explain if I am wrong, it was a while ago now.
We also went to the cemetery, I love old graves and I took lots of photo's which I hope to decipher a bit later I think the oldest dates back to 1875. We did find the grave of the grand parents of the other friend who was with us.
More on the big trip later.

well, these are lovely - I'm looking forward to going away and being a travelling sketcher, sometime.
