Drawing Amsterdam Dailies, Day 164. It was hard to decide what to draw and from what angle and what was going to be the focus in this next drawing of an entrance area next to a canal boat.

I decided that the attention should be on the archway with planters over the walkway to the houseboat.

The boat itself has a really interesting raised portion and room to enter on. It almost seems right to be a kitchen but where would one steer the boat from? I have to learn more about canal boats. So many questions!

Tomorrow will be more sketching with pencil to make sure I get things in the right size and in proportion. As long as I get something roughly down in pencil, then I can look at it and see what needs adjustment and do it, before I move on to the inking part.
