私が「お店を撮らせてもらって良いですか？」と問うと、彼は一言「いいですよ」とだけ答えた。
Inspiration and opportunity to sketch hit me today doing errands after taking my son to camp today...It hit me watching a man pump air in his tires while I waited for my car to be filled with gas.
This is a compostion of four different sketches in a small street in Porto stitched together with photoshop. The actual scene was like this. Drawn on location. Pencil, copic marker and water color on paper.
Randocroquis dans les rues de Paris : le samedi à Montmartre, le dimanche autour du Pont-Neuf. Ces croquis sont des explications des consignes d'exercices. Quelques fois on voit des dessins pêle-mêle, parfois des images plus finalisées.

Portrait of a Pinzgauer
Kind of had my own personal sketch crawl on Friday. I headed down to Buena Vista on my motorcycle, ahead of MB. I spent the larger part of the day in "downtown" BV, such as it is, doing some sketching.
I believe this is some sort of European troop carrier or utility vehicle. Very 4x4. I saw two of these in one weekend in the Buena Vista/Salida area. I suppose people buy these things and drive them around to make the Hummer folks feel inferior. I had a look inside, and it was very "agricultural". Notice that I again ran out of room on the page. Duh.
Got a human anatomy picture off Google pictures and sketched it. I didn't come up with this myself. Its was fun and well needed practice for shading. In the future i might add some letters around it.
I’ve been taking a break from the large piece to do some doodling. It always helps me recharge and it gives me a fresh outlook when I step back up to the painting. Plus, my sketches differ quite a bit from my usual painting style, so it’s refreshing to do something different. Some of these characters, I’d definitely like to redo and add some color to them. That’ll probably be a future sketchbook entry.

Scene Along the Highline Canal, Denver, CO
I sketched this as quickly as I could, still maintaining the feel that I wanted. I probably spent about 15-20 minutes on it.
I didn't capture the expansiveness of the actual scene, but I'm still very happy with the results in terms of composition and tone. Doing these quick sketches is a great way to force yourself to think in terms of values and shapes, rather than details.
Drawn in a large Moleskine sketchbook using blunt 8B pencil and blending stick. The blending stick adds a painterly quality, IMO.

The COCKroach:
Why on Earth would you name a superhero after a disgusting insect??
Cockroaches are ugly and we kill them remorselessly whenever we see one! But it is also a known fact that they are strong SURVIVORS and has strong defiance to death! How many creatures can you think of that can survive the radiation from a nuclear blast or survive without their HEAD for up to a month!? Whenever we kill one, there will be another two poping up the next day on your deck. They just keep coming back…
The cockroach man is the symbol of endurance, endurance and endurance. He is a superhero that can endure all the attacks, abuse and punishments, but still RISES against the injustice, discrimination and prejudice. He is a superhero that will give all he has got to protect, save the innocents and his loved ones, and as long as he’s still got half a breath in his body, he would never give up. The Cockroach is the underdog of all underdogs. He will take punches after punches but he still keeps rising forward; nothing can break his spirit nor hold him down.
BACK STORY:
Corey was born with a rare skin condition that gave him a tough insect like skin – as a kid he used to get bullied because of it. They would push him around and call him names like "Corey the Cockroach!" The world he lives in is governed by dishonest, corrupted cops and politicians; the people are scared but they are too afraid to stand up and do anything about it. Corey's family was poor but just; his mother was one of the few honest cops left in town, who was crippled during a gun fire at a police shoot out. Corey had to look after her and she was her main teacher in life, she taught him to be strong even at the toughest times. Over the years, Corey grew up to become a strong young man with a strong sense of justice and morals.
As Corey grew, so did his powers. He developed mental control over his skin condition and discovered the ability to make his skin super tough but still flexible. He also discovered that with great concentration, he could extend/contract his body and even grow and extend new body parts.
After the murder of his mother by wealthy criminals who were immune to the "justice" system, Corey decided to step up and make use of his power to fight and bring light into the dark, corrupted neighbourhood.
Corey took up his nickname from school and became the superhero, the COCKROACH. The COCKROACH is an underdog fighting for the weak, innocents, the poor and the other underdogs. He is the protector who rises up against the abuses, attacks, injustice and discrimination.
His SUPER POWERS:
1) SUPER TOUGH BUT FLEXIBLE AROMOURED SKIN. The COCKROACH's skin is super strong and bullet-proof, but at the same time it is super flexible, which means he can squeeze through the tightest gaps and holes, like a real cockroach. His tough armoured skin allows the COCKROACH to take a lot of attacks, abuses and physical punishments and still survive and rise back.
2) The ability to EXTEND/GROW BODY PARTS AND WEAPONS.
The COCKROACH has the ability to grow/retract extra limbs, so he can save the little kitten off the tree while eating an ice cream while patting the dog that chased the kitten up the tree in the first place.
He also has the ability to form weapons like organic knife, sword and whip. He can also form organic "guns" that shoot out energy balls and tranquilising stings.
3) The ability to FLY WITH HIS COCKROACH'S WINGS. The COCKROACH has two sets of wings that can be tucked inside his back when they are not in use. The outer wings are super tough and protective while the inner wings are tough, super flexible and thin; he can drag them across his shoulders and pull them over to shield him from explosions. He could also drag the inner wings over and shield the innocents from harm.
4) The ability to camouflage. The COCKROACH is a smart detective, he can be "invisible" and camouflage into the background to learn who he can trust and who are dishonest and corrupted.
