It was an absolutely glorious day today. About 80º F when I was sketching. I sat on the pillar support and sketched while Gene was in PT.

Number 4 public space - I sketched in the Ohuhu sketchbook with an Ohuhu .5 pen and watercolors. I was pleased with the cars for the most part. I'm not usually too happy with my cars as they don't resemble the actual vehicle. I like the first, second and fourth, left to right. The third car ended up looking like a "kit" car or revamped in some way with the tire so large. I also didn't color the passenger side tire .. maybe it was flat and colorless. Yeah, right. It was a very low slung sedan in silver and quite a lovely little car. Always a surprise when you don't see things until you add color.
Joan Tavolott mentioned that she always tries to sketch what will be moving out of her sketch first. Great idea. I decided I better sketch the cars before someone parked in front of me or the cars moved. No one parked until I was just finishing the last and then they only stayed about 5 minutes and came and moved. The parked sketch models stayed. Thanks, Joan.
If you haven't looked at Joan's blog in a while you should head on over. She and spouse just got back from Venice where they were for a month so her sketches this past month show beautiful scenes in the area. Love the old walls, arches and gondolas ... and more. Have fun.
