I never looked at it that way, but hell I like the metaphor! I'll go with it!

Done Kazky, I'll try to get some up tomorrow of my neighbourhood for ya.

OK so I decided to try to keep this pendulum in motion with my art. I seem to be a good flow being in a new place. So I'm going to do my best to post at least one sketch that I'll do before I go to bed. We'll see how this goes. It could be anything even just a page of pose studies but here is the first. Don't ask, no clue. :pinch:

Done in Pen and Indian Ink about 20 min.

well I decided aside from a bedtime sketch I'kl do a wake-up one as well, whatever it may be (especially in this case).
I haven't messed around with mix media for awhile. A friend from work picked up some artists pigment powder from France. So I tried that out a bit today. I mixed the pigments with White Gouache.

Pen and Ink, Gouache and pencil crayons.

Awesome artwork! Packed with energy and story! You could turn all these into a comic book!

That looks beautiful Mike and kinda like I remember it looking, wide streets and it just seemed "peaceful', it's probably not anymore but it still looks it :)

Thanks for posting them

I'm a bit envious... :ohmy: I wanna be there too! :huh:

But anyway I I love the inked painting of the idian! It has so much expression. He looks a bit as if we disturbed him while he did some creepy rituals or something like this. really really nice :)

If I had a world of my own,everything would be nonsense.Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't.
