Tampa Travelers

8.5x5.5 ink and watercolor or line and wash of my quick airport sketches waiting in Tampa.  People move quickly so it is imperative to get the figure and attributes down right away.  I used Pigma Micron 01 pen by Sakura, then after arriving home on 23 August, applied transparent watercolor to the two women.

Karen - 4 Poses watermedia collage

15x22 Arches hot press 140 lb paper with charcoal drawn views of the same model.  Collage added to middle ground and to her skirt while gold watercolor makes up the background.  A tennis shoe imprinted handmade stamp is the pattern seen on her blouse.  I used the Matisse acrylic paint for neutral foreground made by Derivan in Australia.   This is the last one done in Liz Hill's class and is the most unusual.
