Nice sketch and good story. The motivation and inspiration to make a drawing, sketch or painting is always the critical thing for me. Being retired, I have plenty of time but still need a lot nudge to create an image. I have a regular life drawing workshop that makes me sketch often, but outside of that I need a strong motivation. Strange isn’t it.
Regarding your sketch, I think it’s wonderful to be able to interpret a well known painting from the exact place it was made. You get a special connection with the art and artist. And to be able to do this over lunch is a dream come true!
That dream is more like a necessity; when I go to work and return it's dark. I can only make an Urban sketch during lunchbreak.
But it was a feast to draw there, I already wanted to draw it for some time, but I had to wait until winter. In the summer it's hard to see the mill through the foliage.
