More People on Public Transport in March

These are from the same sketchbook as the last posting, but it is a twofold sketchbook: It is half made from very bright, almost blueish Dorée 200 drawing paper, whose color I love, which is a good paper for dry media, and I have a 50 m roll lying around under my desk which will […]
I’ve been looking for a way to make my public transport drawings ‘exhibitable’, take them out o sketchbooks somehow, mostly by using folded single sheets of different sizes, like here. This is another attempt, not just putting the people on a single sheet, but trying to convey the feeling of looking through a whole sketchbook, […]
I draw too much, or scan too slowly! The sketches keep piling up but I’m always behind on the scanning, so here a quick sketch dump to start catching up. There’s already much more, but it will have to wait for another day…
I’m back to simple pencil for my sketching on the train. (Also, the links of the images lead nowhere right now. I’ll fix that as soon as I get around to it.)
I’m finished with the Zequenz m sketchbook I have used for most of my public transport sketches yet this year, and in which I’ve both discovered the fun in making a mess and been driven to make real clean black lines with a pen on its smooth paper. Here are the last rather messy and […]
The first two were made on the train stations (S-Bahn) of Westhafen and Halensee, respectively, the third is a view of Skalitzer Straße in the sunday morning sun, and the fourth shows three houses in Lichtenberg’s Wartenbergstraße. Only the one in the house middle seems to be inhabited still; the windows in the house on […]
For the past weeks I’ve mostly stuck to my EF Rotring Art Pen, which glides over the smooth bright paper of my current sketchbook to produce clean black lines. The lines are not quite as thin as I would like them to be, with barely any variation at all. This forces me to know what […]
Saturday’s sketchcrawl took us to the SOMA exhibition at Hamburger Bahnhof, where reindeer lounge about in a big hall eating fly agaric, accompanied by twenty-four canaries, eight mice and two flies, half of which are fed the urin of the reindeer eating fly agaric, so the visitors can decide if they perceive a difference in […]
Not much to say about these. I went to work, so did the people I drew, and it was cold. Details:
Another week of commuting and drawing and drawing and commuting.
