PORTFOLIO 2 - TRAVEL SKETChES: Process and Media
working in Plein Air
Travel Sketches generally are executed in "plein air" rather than in the studio, so they tend to be more spontaneous and may use a variety of media - whatever is portable and available!
pencil
Pencil or graphite are easily carried tools for field sketching, and, if you over do it, they can be erased!
Pen
Pen and ink, my favorite medium, hence the name Penpoint Studio.
PEN & watercolor
A travel watercolor kit with a special brush allows color to quickly enhance a sketch in the field.
crayon / colored pencil
crayon / colored pencil
Crayons, pastels, and colored pencils are tools for quick color sketching with varying levels of detail.
