Added watercolor

Added watercolor to my previously posted drawing.

Dip Pen Exercises

Fun to play with but not as convenient as a fine line pen. More expressive lines. Don't know if I would try it in a coffee shop etc, probably spill the ink bottle.

More Coffee

Playing with a dip pen.

New toy

I have admired some very expressive drawings done with a dip pen and nib so, while there is some muss and fuss, I am giving it a try.

Bev shops and I sit at the coffee shop and draw. Pretty great to be comfortable sitting outside drawing on Dec 19 in Canada, hope it lasts.

Canada Geese, Port Moody BC

Canada geese are everywhere here and one afternoon I sat in the park in Port Moody and drew them. I did this from one of the drawings, trying out a "stippling" type of drawing I saw in a drawing book.

Big Ben is in this bell tower at the Parliament Buildings in London. Made this from a photo taken on our May/09 trip.

Life Drawing

Put some watercolor on a drawing I did at a life drawing session.

St. Pauls from the MIllenium Bridge, London

I saw this in May on our trip to the UK. Drew it from a photo, so not strictly according to the Urban Sketch rules of actually drawing on site. Couldn't resist doing the drawing.
