Sketches at the Airport, Birthday Girl

We had a layover in Dallas on the way to Albuquerque, so I sketched a little. It was the only time I had. On the flights going we were talking and planning. On the way back I was in a middle seat with no room to even work a crossword puzzle, much less sketch.

This was a look out the window. Then a little girl came by, she was so cute. I sure didn't capture that. :(



A few of the people around the waiting area. The little girl with the pony tail on top had on a green fuzzy jacket. She doesn't look young. Fun and the time passed quickly, though. Sketched with a Micron 05 pen.


Then we arrived in Albuquerque. Saturday was the big day for the party. This is the birthday girl at 29, she says. I wish we could all look that good at 92. Amazing!
