Rainy's Stillman & Birn Sketchbooks

[Joan T]

I love that you sketch anything that is handy!!!

[vhere]

it's a really good sketch - it's funny how interesting every day things can be to draw

[RainySea]

Thank you Viv, Joan, Debby, Margo and Tina.

Quick sketch of an elephant with a Derwent sketching pencil on S&B Beta. I'm not fond of pencil on this paper, has more texture than I like for pencils.

[DrDebby]

Marvelous elephant. Yes, the Beta has a lot of texture to it.

[poochemio]

Well I like the way the elephant turned out. I think the textured background adds to the look. The paper we work on is such a personal preference though.

[bookscorpion]

The texture of the paper works great with the elephant

[Fidgement]

Wonderful sketches Rainy as always. My favorite is the baby bird. Very well done.

Thanks!

Attempt at urban sketching. . . this was a quickie few days ago so I missed lots of the details and tried to make it up some with colors added after the fact tonight. S&B Beta

[DrDebby]

Rainy, sometimes less is more. This is one of those times. Great job.

[bookscorpion]

It makes me want to go and have some icecream

[Joan T]

Nice job on the elephant. I love the sketch of the restaurant! I could sit down now and have a meal!

[RainySea]

Thank you Joan, Jennifer and Debby!

This is waterlily from the inspirational pictures, pen and markers

[poochemio]

That's a great urban sketch Rainy. I think half of the point of urban sketching is getting down what interests you and on to the next thing. I always edit my sketches or I'd never get them done. Your waterlillies are super! One of my absolute favorite flowers.

[bookscorpion]

Beautiful, the waterlilies really pop
