Photo vs. Sketch

I finally did it.

I've been wanting to try my hand at sketching.

Why? Because I love the idea of traveling with a sketchbook. Or biking to the park on a spring morning and bringing the sketchbook.

Don't laugh at me.

So I decided to start my sketching adventure by using some of my photos. This way, no one would be looking over my shoulder, waiting for the "artist" to work her magic. Because, that so is not going to happen.

Here are sketches #1, #2, and #3.

Again....no laughing.

Paper...Pen...Paint

Do I sketch?

No.

(well, there was that 1 mini-book from a Boston trip a few years back where I did some sketching on the plane ride)

But I watched this video over on Dispatch From LA and now I want to sketch.

Well, I want to retire and travel and sketch and explore and live.

Wanna go with me?

Maybe I'll head down the street to the park.

That sounds like a good place to start my travels.
