The Gwins

8.5x5.5 mixed media on Bienfang sketchbook finished today.  This is Linda Gwin and her husband Myron sketched with black Tombow pen.  Greys were simply water added to the black ink.  I used Montana acrylic markers on her black sweater and for the hot orange background; watercolor used to paint her colorful blouse.  They attended the Art on the Llano Estacado show I was in last week. I love his wild tropical Hawaiian shirt.  Since I needed a couple to draw for Sketchbook Skool the Gwins were selected.
