Watercolor Travel Journal
During my short trip to Italy, I also made a first attempt to keep a watercolor travel journal. Though I didn’t fill up the whole sketchbook like I hoped, I managed to get a few fun paintings in there.
Studies from the old masters
I went to a wonderful trip to Venice & Florence of Italy last month.
I also spend a few hours here and there to study some of the old masters’ work and did some quick sketches.
Art nights
Since last year, a few of my art friends have been gathering at my apartment every other week for an art night. It’s a good chance for us to do art projects that we couldn’t get to, or simply draw and sketch for a few hours. Throughout the year, I’ve been taking the chance to do some animal sketches 🙂

Lion Sketch

Lizard Sketches

Animal Sketches: Bat, deer, jellyfish, peacock
Ching Dynasty Empress
It’s been a long while since I last used pastel, it’s getting really rusty!
Maybe I can get back to that again soon….
Animal Sketches and Studies
Drawing from photos may not be the best way to learn animals anatomy, but I just gotten the book The Weatherly Guide to Drawing Animals, and gave me the itch to do some quick sketches of animals.
