the SAN DIEGO SKYLINE

                             6 x 18  Pen and ink with some Tombow markers

The San Diego Skyline is very attractive. I enjoyed drawing my city from the view of Coronado Island sitting on the pier of the ferry. I decided to not put any color on my original and I will add some on the prints I will make. I will post the color version later.
This drawing was made originally for the header of the blog of the 3rd Annual Urban Sketchers Sketch Crawl which will meet here in August 7.8.9. 2015.
Come join us if you can it will be worth it to visit our beautiful city.

JURY DUTY !

                                               8  x  11 Pen & Ink with Tombow pens

I got Jury Duty on Election Day at the downtown San Diego courthouse and around the corner is this lovely train station amidst the tall buildings. So after my jury duty I sat a the bus stop and drew. People where very friendly.
On a side note we had a pep talk by the top judge here in San Diego thanking us for our time and saying it was a nice connection doing this on election day but for our information he told us on this day in 196.... Kennedy was at Horton Plaza (which is a beautiful mall a few block from the court house) campaigning for his election and he meet him.
I though it was cool too since my dad had a little time spent with his wife Jackie..........

This house is in Point Loma  San Diego and every time I drive by I've been wanting to draw it and in particular this tree it is in bloom now covered with little white flowers .

Just beautiful. So I stopped and took the time.   

The color version of this tree is on Art by Dominique -  I'M IN BLOOM

Under my palm !

                                                         8  x  11 pen & Ink & Tombow

  Let's dream of white sand and a nap under this palm with the ocean waves soothing our soul.

  I have to give credit to Nancy of Every photo tells a story for her comments on my previous post for this sketch.

                    I really like doing architectural sketches and this one with the reflection in the water was fun. My little vacation in europe was such a blessing, here in London with Adebanji.
