Today's sketch

This is a beautiful cathedral in Mt. Vernon that doesn't actually have a giant bird's nest on top. I'm spending too much money on croquils because this paper wears them out so quickly. If any inkers out there have advice on how to preserve them I'd like to hear it.



Sat down by the railyard today to sketch for a few hours. It was fun! I get pretty sloppy so I make a ton of mistakes, but sometimes they grow on me.

Unappetizing




Here's a quick illustration I did for class. I've been using a croquil lately for some projects since I've never been much of an inker. It's a lot of fun and super satisfying to just lay in such permanent lines. I usually try to plan everything out from start to finish for better results, but this one was start to finish in one afternoon.
