I-F: Citrus

It's been nice to have a bit of down time in the middle of the trip to do things like... Illustration Friday! the word this week is Citrus. This technically is still a travel sketch, but from another trip...



and here's a bonus one I drew while waiting for my laundry. (I came home to paint it though) I'm enjoying playing with crazy textures with the paint and then having bold and detailed linework on top.



enjoy!

I like how you create depth with scale in the first picture... line and wash will always be my favourite 'style'
