travel

I have quite a bit of traveling planned this Summer...from NYC to Copenhagen to Venice to Berlin and a few more spots. Very much looking forward to all the different colors, cities, and cultures in the coming weeks.

Gouache on Arches watercolor paper. I have been living overseas for 6 years now with my wife. (Originally from the states) We have lived in Seoul, South Korea, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, Tel Aviv, Israel, and in the Summer we will move once again to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. So this is a painting is a sort of self-portrait.

I've been traveling all summer and had not been able to make any art. Here is my first painting in a while. A little bit of art therapy.

Based on a photo I took when I was there a few weeks ago. Bic pen in my sketchbook

My biggest mural to date. Painted in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

This colossal bird has traveled to many universes searching for a suitable place to perch, which she found in this earth-like planet.

I don’t do much on a plane except doodle. And this was no exception. I love to travel, even the long days that go with it.

The meal was my attempt to bring a little comfort into the rugged outdoors. The sketch was my reminder—to hold onto the moment, even when mosquitoes, ashes, and deflating air mattresses had other plans.

The moment of death of a Christian as they leave this earthly world and travel to the afterlife. The figure is halfway between the earthly and heavenly realms. The earthly realm I painted in flat paints. The heavenly realm is bright and glorious. God is depicted in trinity, you see Father, Son and Holy Spirit as one.

Another bus doodle I started last night, paused on, and finished up the moment I woke up… typical Thursday, I suppose.

The 'arting while travelling' exercise I'm ever so fond of.

Pretty much what it says on the tin!

Travelling whales.

Quite often I’ll get ambushed with flyers and the like whilst out and about. Thankfully, I have use for said materials.
