Fylde Gallery, Booths - photographs, thumbnails sketches & composition

The Fylde Gallery, Booths Haven Road Lytham was the setting for this week's outing.  The exhibition of food photography was perfect for studying composition and we used our Booths Cards for a coffee!

We each made several thumbnail sketches, selected one and made it into a larger drawing. 

The fab results are below...
