Below are a sample of the sketches done during a recent trip down under.
Dubai. This was the first stop on a trip down under. A tonal sketch at Dubai Creek behind our hotel.
Melbourne. Our second stop. The iconic Flinders Street Station an exercise in perspective.
Launceston. Tasmania. Joined the Launceston Urban Sketchers for this sketch of the marina. Used splatter to unify the sketch.
Beauty Point, Tasmania. Tonal sketch of the harbour using Daniel Smith ‘Lunar Blue’. This illustrates what can be achieved with a single colour.
Hobart, Tasmania. Joined Hobart Urban Sketchers for a morning in the centre of town. This view illustrates the concentrated use of colour to create a focal point.
Sydney. An alternative angle for this sketch of the iconic Opera House using loose washes.
