Vietnam-Hanoi




I tried to capture the street craziness in the top picture but you can's really do it justice.

Vietnam- Phong Nha caves







These are caves in Phong Nha national park, currently home of the world's largest cave, Song Doong. Tours into Song Doong are booked up until next year- and cost a fortune- but the other caves are pretty impressive too.








Vietnam-Nha Trang beach








Coloured pens again. It was odd to find so many blonde ladies on a beach in Vietnam but Nha Trang is a hot spot for Russian tourists.

Cathedral Beach, North Island, New Zealand



I moved the mouth of Cathedral Cave to bring it nearer to one of the picturesque rock formations. This kind of this is why I find drawing better than taking photographs.
Thos was an interesting beach- we saw a wedding and a streaker.

Sketches from a Maori haka


Not very good unfortunately- the movement was  much less repetitive than normal dancing

Kiwi, New Zealand



We didn't see kiwi in the wild-these were in Napier aquarium. They are such cool little birds. They would be great to animate- lots of squash and stretch. They usually double over pecking at the ground but their full height is about a couple of feet- which is a bit surprising.
