Men in Black Sketch

The temp was about 70º on the porch this morning.  Gosh it was super.  Coffee and egg sandwiches and sketching.  What could be better?

I sketched on the bottom of the page from yesterday.  That is in the Canson Mixed Media large sketchbook with a Micron 03 and watercolor.  I used the water brushes.  I was thinking I've had those Ohuhu brushes for about 15+ years.  They are still fine.  Well, one tends to spread out after a few minutes but they have been very good.

Number 5 legs and Number 6 animal

It was interesting to me to see the two men, both in black and both with a little dog.  Anyway fun to try to sketch.  They didn't stop and I didn't think to get a quick photo so everything may be a bit off.  

I scanned it first in black and white by mistake.  I was pleased to see that my values are pretty good.

Good capture of both men and their dogs. Nice to see it in black & white too. Glad the weather was nice to sit out on the porch. It was damp and cold here today...rain expected tonight.
