Musée Rodin

Musée Rodin, Paris. Watercolor and pen and ink on Arches watercolor block.

Still mining the photos from three years ago for drawing ideas.

Monet's Garden

Monet's Garden, Giverny, France, May 2012. Copic markers on Arches watercolor paper.

Paris Windows

Paris Windows. Uni-ball Vision pen and Winsor & Newton watercolors on Arches watercolor paper.

Street in Victoria, British Columbia

Street in Victoria, British Columbia. Copic markers on Arches watercolor paper.

This drawing is based on a photo I took in August 2009. I'd rather look at these flowers than at the bleak wintry scene outside my window today.

Barn

Barn. Copic sketch markers on Arches watercolor block.

I was looking at some Van Gogh and Monet today and felt inspired. Of course, it's hard to get the right effect when using markers instead of paint, but I tried anyway.

Ottawa and Monroe Center

Ottawa and Monroe Center, Grand Rapids, Michigan. Uni-ball Vision micro pen and Winsor & Newton watercolors on Arches watercolor block, 10"x14".

This is what I did with my snow day on Friday--well, most of my weekend really. You can see here what it looked like before I added watercolor.

Tea

Tea. Winsor & Newton watercolors and Uni-ball Vision pen on Arches watercolor paper.

I cleaned up my tea cupboard and thought I'd draw this assortment to practice my hand-lettering.
