Essex Market and Beyond

The Essex Market had so many little scenes going on I wanted to sketch them all.
First I sketched "Pain d'Avignon." I couldn't decide if I wanted to sketch it or devour what was inside.


Then I turned slightly to sketch the New Star Fish counter.


A half turn brought my focus to the Heritage Meat Shop.


A break for lunch brought us to the Meatball Shop. Marie and Amy were sitting across from me. 
I did the sketch on site but added the color when I got home. The restaurant was too busy to occupy the table for too long.


Back at the market I had 20 minutes for a quick sketch of the Saxelby Cheesemongers.


Then many of us headed off to a Dr. Sketchy event, which although it isn't urban sketching, I'll show you my one of my sketches of the model with some sketchers at work...Amy was one of them.
