The morning started off with a late
breakfast at the
Vyge Valley Farm Stall where the
ladies tucked into their meals - Ruth and
Lyn enjoy a joke and Gillie seems to want to
'dispose' of the huge basket of toast. |

The houses in Jacobsbaai are very
refreshing and the area exudes a
'peaceful' atmosphere. Denis is an
artist par excellence and his patience
with us all had us looking forward to
learning so much more from him in the
future. Mel looks very tense at
the thought of having to draw her first
picture! (But Denis explained that he
DID have
tracing paper available)
- so all was not lost. |

|
Then it was time to select an appropriate
picture and transfer it onto the canvas.
The 2 'artists' amongst us - Dawn and Gillie
preferred to hand sketch their art. |

|
The first session was soon over and we could
hardly believe what had been achieved in 3
hours. Having had an acrylic wash the
drawings were already coming to life. |
 |
 |
|
Two self-catering houses were chosen -
Die Seehuis
and Whispering Whale
and very soon everyone had unpacked and there
was a short time to rest before the evening
meal. |

Sanet who runs Die
Herberg joined us for a glass of wine
and later Marilyn who runs her kitchen did a
crayfish demonstration for us - from the
cleaning to the preparation of the sauce (never
mind the butter & garlic - all a 'necessary'
addition) |
