Train scribble

Bouncing train makes it hard to stay steady.... But fun! Painting on
the iPhone is like clean digital finger painting.

Carving

Starting in on it.
I like to draw back over with charcoal so I can see what I've done

Reverse drawing

Drawing for color plate 1 of c&h sugar factory. Most detail will come
from black plate (next one) but I want to establish perspective and
architecture and major light shapes here. I drew in more detail than
needed, but that helps me discover what patterns of form are most
interesting. Now, sharpen the tools and carve!

location


drawing spot-
wonder what the grade was:

Testing hypothesis

Parking patterns. Fun to paint. Picked what I thought was a less
traveled street, but endedup explaining myself several times and
losing some of my subject matter to commuters. Reminds me how esoteric
art world is, when everyday hillfolk look at me like a lunatic for
choosing to study the way vehicles respond to hill terrain. Such a
tame subject of exploration.
