I sketched this at Boule & Berså, an outdoor bar close to Danvikstull bridge. The bridge is raised once an hour during the summer months at 38 minutes past the hour to allow sailing boats to pass though Stockholm. It’s very enjoyable to just sit down and have a beer and sketch especially on a Friday afternoon after work. My wife joined me later and so the sketchbook was put away and I finished it later that Sunday.

My English is Google Translate. I’m trying to be clear.
The Danvikstull image looks great to me, being a happy combination of detail and quick touches.
It is at the border between classic realism and phantasy.
Hi Victor, Another late reply from me. Thank you for your comment, I was quite happy with that sketch. The weather is getting colder here in Sweden, soon I will have to sketch indoors. I wish I lived in a warmer climate sometimes.
