Sketches from the Cruise
I had a wonderful time on the cruise. We spent most of our days on lounge chairs on the ship. I love people watching and there was much to see on the cruise! I decided that since I really don't draw or paint people that it would be good practice to sketch my fellow passengers. I just used a pencil for these but I wish I had used pen. I am trying to figure out a good way to take photos of the sketches since the lines are so light. More tomorrow!

Wonderful and very expressive sketches!!
ReplyDeleteI'm very glad to be in this challenge and as I already told Maggie, it's nice to do this together with other people... you learn a lot!!
Lovely gestural sketches, and it sounds like you had a very relaxing time. Do you scan your drawings...you may be able to get better definition with a scanner.

ReplyDeleteSketching people has been a challenge for me. They always seem to move just as I start to sketch them. But it can be fun. Maybe I need to take a cruise. Perhaps people stay put for longer intervals of time on a ship and I might stand a chance!
I am trying to convince my husband to "cruise", he says what will you do all that time....silly man, sit and sketch of course! I love your blog!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! Thanks for the idea of scanning the sketches. I need a scanner now!! I hope to visit everyone's blog today to see what you've been up to. I am still playing catch up from the trip!!
