Next up was Mary Poppins.Twenty minutes. This was drawn in two parts. First we drew Jessica with her hand up. And then we added the umbrella. I did not leave enough room for the umbrella.

Another twenty minute sketch. And a contest. We had to draw what Mary had in her bag. I drew a spoonful of medicine and balloons. My Mary would not have anything scary in her bag except maybe those eyes under the bench. 

Jessica was a super model. She could hold a pose like a rock which is what you want when you are doing a life model. And her poses and costumes were lovely. 

Come

Join the fun at Dr Sketchys.

2 minute sketch

The month means it’s time for Dr Sketchys at Chat Noir in downtown Augusta. 

 2 minute sketch 

Our model Jessica was great!! 

This is actually the first of three two minute sketches. 

We started off with three or four two minute sketches. I was using my Kuretake brush pen with permanent Carbon Black ink in a superaquabee tablet. 

Captain America 10 minute sketch w Winsor Newton watercolor markers and a few Tombows. 

15 minute sketch w Winsor Newton watercolor markers and Tombows.  Both are water based and do great things when you use a water loaded brush on them line that nice brown on the eagles tail. 
Here’s the whole sketch. I didn’t have time to draw her chair. And the choice of a political slogan was unfortunate. 

Scribbled the first thing that came into my mind. Scary thought. 

She also has wink of Stella markers on her. Great glittery effects. I have a red one a black one and a gold one that I used. That’s what the gold on her shoes is.  

Anyway lots to color. 

Stay tuned for part 2. 

Margaret who had a great time at Dr Sketchys. Thanks Princess Augusta and Jessica Belle!!! Xxxx

My friend Who told me to get off my diet because he was tired of food. 

I stopped at a Dollar store yesterday and when I pulled out there was a while huge field full of construction equipment and those silos and water towers. Pulled back into the parking lot and drew them. Well most of them. 

Drawn in a strathmore wc journal which I want to like but wish it was  their 500 mixed media paper. PEn is a Konrad Noodler with carbon platinum black ink. 

Ted Nuttalls transparent watercolor.   Daniel Smith and Winsor Newton watercolor. 

Thanks for checking by.

The Circus was in Aiken last Monday. I drove around in back to check out the animals. All they had were the camels and the elephants. I have never drawn camels before. Not sure how well they turned out but I do like the truck.  Too bad I ran out of room for it.  Oops. 

Love drawing elephants. The one on the left moved a lot. And they were whisked off to perform before I got a chance to get out of the car. 😔 

These were drawn with a Noodler Konrad in a strathmore landscape watercolor sketchbook and actually painted with watercolor using Ted Nuttalls transparent colors plus cerulean.

Margaret xxx think I will go draw some more trucks!! 🤗
