Went out to sketch in Savannah today. The weather was beautiful, leaves were changing colors and the breeze was cool and fresh. I had planned on doing a larger sketch but found doing small cartoons to be fun and I only had an hour. So here they are; The Savannah Information Center, fire truck assisting a homeless man, and cars parked along the street.
Hope to be out tomorrow doing the same.
Took some time off to go see what Florida looks like. Drove from Savannah down to the A1A, then followed that to just north of Miami. Finally ran out of road in Key West, so I drew a picture outside the naval station and come home.
I took this beautiful fall day to go out to Tybee Island and draw a picture of the lighthouse.
This painting was initially a sketch I did while canoeing around Wilmington Island. The coloring was done later once I got home.
I just moved back to the USA to begin teaching. The Coronavirus is taking its toll and we are all in self quarantine. For me, it’s been about a month of sitting inside and teaching class online. I took a break from class to drink coffee and draw the trees outside from my balcony.
Today was windy, but not too cold. Either way, the St. Thomas Church was open and mainly empty. Bach practiced the organ here and the church does frequent recitals. I recommend visiting if you are ever in Leipzig.
It has been below freezing today so I looked for a place inside to draw. I found St. Nicholas’ Church was open. I drew this picture on my Samsung Note. It’s a small drawing surface, but for making quick sketches it works great.
It’s a few weeks after Christmas, but Nikolai Kirche still has a nativity and tree up. I spent about 45 minutes sitting and sketching on my Surface Pro. I don’t get to go drawing much and I wanted to practice on a tablet.
Jet lag is fading. Fixed a nice breakfast of fresh bread and ham with coffee. Wandered over to St. Michael’s Cathedral and drew the pulpit. There were maybe 2 other people around. It was quiet.
