Assorted Sketches

 The other day I treated myself to a pedicure and foot massage. I brought along a tiny sketchpad to sketch the technician.

A truck and a car for the Creative Spark Scavenger Hunt.

This sketch was done from a photo of my grandnephew taking part in a lion dance for the Lunar New Year at his school.

Washville

Car washes are always interesting because they are so busy...especially on the weekend. It was hard to catch a vehicle exiting the car wash. They move off so fast. This was done at Washville in Blue Point. Luckily there was an empty parking lot across the street because I needed a bit of distance to get everything in. 

360 Degree View

 Over in the Scavenger Hunt on Creativespark.art one of the items was the view in front of you. As a challenge we were asked to sketch what was in front of us, then turn 90 degrees and sketch that view, turn 90 degrees again, and finally sketch the last final 90 degree view. My friend, Jo Castillo did the challenge so if she could do it I could too. lol I went to Captree State Park which is on the bay side. The clouds on Saturday were a feast to sketch. It was windy so I sat inside my mobile studio to do all of these.

I did the sky in front of me to start.

Still seated in the car I turned to my left and sketched this car and the buildings that house the restaurant and the restrooms.

Next I did the view 90 degrees to my left...a truck and some foliage.

This view was behind me so I backed out of my parking space, turned the car around, and reparked but in reverse in the same spot.

The Truck

 For me sketching trucks is a challenge with all those wheels. I always feel like my vehicles wouldn't be able to move very far with the tires I give them. lol
