Sketching badly on the train

I haven’t had much time to myself where I have access to a table, so I tried a sketch on a wobbly train and made myself a bit motion sick. But here it is: one art achieved today.

Quick sketch

I took a photo about a year ago that I’d like to turn into a painting. This is a first sketch so I can do a few rehearsals. Originally I wanted to use oils, since that’s what I’m most comfortable with, but I know watercolours would be better for the look I want – if I can get the sketch right. Lots of practice required.
