Cloudy With A Chance Of Foie Gras



We did really good with the weather on our trip. Lovely fall temperatures but because we were right on the water, there were always tons of puffy clouds in the sky. I decided to make that the focal point of this drawing. It's the next chateau we stayed in. Chateau de Locguenole in Lorient, France. This place had a massive lawn, so I decided to make the chateau very small in my drawing. If you notice I drew a little thing that sits on the lawn. Those are powerful lights that light up the whole lawn and forest at night. There was a beautiful swimming pool but I didn't bring a bathing suit, so I went for a swim in my underwear. I'm very classy like that. In the morning it was always foggy and for some unknown reason, you could hear bagpipes playing off in the distance. I can really get used to this lifestyle but if I did live this way, I'd buy myself a new bathing suit.
I made a little film of our trip and me drawing. Enjoy.
