sketching where I've never been


On Saturday I took a short "travel sketching" class at the local museum. Tips and pointers for what to take, what to look for, ways to capture the scene.

Then the teacher showed us slides from her various trips and gave us 2 to 5 min. limits for capturing the view.


These are two I did from her shots in Venice. We also drew people on a Maine beach, scenes from Hawaii, and boats of all sizes.

I drew in a 5.5 x 4 sketchbook with a .7 mm Staedtler. Practicing for a summer trip to England!
