Sketch for Delwood Beach

Oil pastel on paper 21 x 27.5 cm
Delwood Beach, is a quaint, tidal beach tucked about half way round a scenic walk which starts near the Manly Art Gallery and leads around the cliff face.  It has stairs leading down from a grassy slope to Delwood Beach below.  This drawing is looking North west, where the ferries could be observed coming to and from Manly.

    Callan Park is a 60-hectare heritage listed site in Lilyfield, a suburb in the Municipality of Leichhardt in the Inner West of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Wikipedia
Needless to add, venturing into this Park with its pools of deep shade and greenery is a very pleasant way to spend a hot and humid day.
