For this SketchCrawl I journey to an island park that is in the middle of our town, where I could surround myself with views of the river and the hydroelectric dam. All of these are gouache/watercolor on paper.

Interesting !
I wonder how your style would look like in my town (Lyon, France). Actually, how it would look like in any town...?
impressive and inspiring !

wow ZUPZUP that is amazing!

I like how the paper plays a part in the first one, and of course I like the rest as well.

How long does it take you to do one on average?

Thanks for sharing

Thanks miss Trop! That is a great idea....I would love to give my style a go in France. I have always wanted to visit your country. Perhaps one day.

Thanks gustavo! I think the first one was my favorite as well......like you said I like how the paper plays a part, and the whole piece is a little more loose and expressive than the others.

All of these are anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes a piece.

These are incredible! I especially love how you allow the colored paper to peek through. Very expressive brushstrokes.
