Airplane Art, or what I do while captive on a plane

I am getting back from some work travel.  When I fly on a plane, I work on these type of quick pencil sketches.  This one is of a toddler with bed head hair.  It is done with regular pencil.

African Violet Watercolor

Today's post is a Watercolor of African Violets for my sister-in-law, Michelle's Birthday.  She loves African Violets and grows them really well.

Skeleton dive sketch

This is a red chalk experiment with a diving skeleton.  Sketching skeletons are part of the way you develop your anatomy skills.  Next would be to add the muscles and then clothing.

Back Muscle Man study

I worked on this last night and tonight, it is pencil, white chalk on grey paper. This is modeled after a Michelangelo study from 400 years ago.

Hand Sketch in Pen

Tonight's work, a pen sketch of a hand.

Drapery Toga studies

These are Drapery studies done with a fine black pen on white paper.  Enjoy!

Hands Sketch
