study

I live on Toronto's waterfront, and everyday there seems to be something new to sketch. I'm trying to keep busy with this whole COVID-19 epidemic. I really can't help but to keep sketching, keeps me sane from all the fear going around.

Getting more detailed with this pattern study, so this definitely wasn't a quickie! Gold Posca pen stream of consciousness doodling.

Bubbly goodness!

Sunset Palm trees Study. Watercolour on Cold Pressed paper 6 x 8. March 25, 2020.

I am really suprised how this turned out I was expecting something totally different but love the result and wanted to show my progress

Pink Posca pen doodle. Gettin' weird over here!

Sunset beach. Watercolour Study. March 21, 2020. Finally getting a bit quicker and trying to use lighter strokes and not be heavy handed.

Sunset Clouds study. Watercolour. March 20, 2020. I found this extremely difficult. I've only ever painted clouds in Oil paint and it was much easier. I'm still working on painting lighter and quicker, but I found it a challenge to mitigate. I'll paint this again once my skills have advanced more.

Can you figure out the pattern rules used here?! Posca pens on 11" x 14" archival paper.

Even though I went to art school, I’ve never stopped continuously learning. This sketch was a study on value in sketching. Book was borrowed from a local library.
