Here’s a quick little sketch I did on my recent visit to Hastings. We walked along the sea front to the Old Town, which is a fishing village, and saw these odd, elongated dark wooden sheds. It turns out they’re net shops / sheds, the fishermen had limited space to hang their nets so built the sheds very high, three stories and painted black. There were also normal size sheds, also very dark wood, that sold the freshest of fish, landed that day. It is lovely to see a traditional industry dating back to the early 19th century still thriving.

You seem to get even the feeling of history inside your expressive drawing.
Thanks Aletha. I like drawing with ballpoint pens, they give a very expressive line.
Oh, I couldn’t agree more! Ballpoint pens are wonderful. And very expressive, as your drawing demonstrates so well.
Brilliant! We saw them a few years ago, I took rather lopsided photos of them, your drawings are much better!
Thanks Lois, they are very striking structures
Great drawing Rosie, really captures the strong shapes of those wonderful sheds . I’ve never actually been to Hastings, I must make a trip before not too long !
Oh do, Phil. It’s so lovely, not what I was expecting
