Sketch of the Week: Spring Has Sprung

Spring has sprung! On the day of spring equinox, I decided to do a quick painting of wildflowers blooming in the vacant lot. I propped my sketchbook on a (very clean) trash bin since steady surface is necessary to do a painting. I came back a couple of days later and thought: hey, the trash bin is in the same place (since it is the kind that is attached to the sidewalk)...why not do a line drawing and compare the two? So I did another quick line drawing from same viewpoint.

Here are the colors:

and lines:

and both together, combined digitally.

It was a fun little experiment to mark the new season!

  1. Oh how fun. I love the 2 separate, but together they have that Shiho Nakaza "je ne sais quoi"!!!! Wonderful! I'd love to see more like this.
