Evening Sketch: corner of Proudhon street. The colored version will follow, perhaps. The evening was softer, and the sun was out for a change :)
croquis du soir : angle de la rue Proudhon. la version colorée suivra je pense. La soirée était plus douce, et du soleil pour changer :)
Plain ol' paper comes to the rescue when in between sketch books!
From a meeting with a client, and eventually turned into the illustrations on this website.
Found on the west coast of the Orkney mainland, this wild location offers stunning sea views. During a westerly gale you can expect huge waves crashing into the cliffs, but in calmer weather it's a nature-lovers paradise, with wild flowers - including Primula scotica - and plenty of seabirds to spot.
The road to Yesnaby leads you to a small car park. If you Head south on the coastal path and walk across the Brough of Bigging you get a view of the jagged and towering cliffs. Continue your walk along the coast past rocky inlets until you reach Yesnaby Castle, a delicate sea-stack with a natural arch. There are excellent viewpoints to enjoy the scenery here before heading back to the car park. You can also continue your walk south if you prefer, taking in more beautiful cliff views and sea stacks.
This woman, from Edinburgh, was sketching the Yesnaby Castle sea stack.

Pataphysical Studios is building a Time Machine for our next art exhibit. On a balmy spring afternoon, Drs. Rindbrain and Fabio created more visualizations of what the Time Machine might look like.
We sketched out several ideas for the inside and outside walls, for discussion purposes. On each side of the main screen, we designed round portholes through which we could interact with our guests -- or show scenes from the past or future. Behind each porthole would be a magic box that could feature artifacts from distant times -- or the head of a historical figure, projected onto a ‘life cast’. The rest of the inside walls would be used for other interactive artworks such as the Crazy Clock, which sings quotes about time when you press its big green button.
On the outside walls, we sketched out a Face Box that you could stick your head in to get your picture taken. It would include an Infinity Mirror made of LED strips cycling through the colors of the rainbow, with a camera at the end of this light tunnel. We also sketched out where time wonderboxes could be placed on the side walls, proposing that the left wall focus on the past and the right wall on the future. A graphic timeline across both walls could support that idea.
It was a productive meeting and we look forward to presenting these ideas to our fellow doctors at the next Time Machine meeting.
Fire in the hole!

About a “Traveling Artist” – Jayson Yeoh
Self-taught artist Jayson Yeoh has a passion for art since young. His pursuit for art creation is relentless and never wavers. A skilled watercolourist, he is always obsessed with the magical quality and versatility of this water media.
Over the years, through his continuous exploration and practice, Jayson has developed a distinctive personal style. His works clearly demonstrate an artistic language unique to himself.
To him, life’s surroundings and the vast nature are his best teachers. They provide him with unlimited source of inspirations and creative sparks.
Jayson loves to travel and always bring with him his sketchbooks and art tools.
Sketching while traveling becomes an important part of his travel itinerary; and is one of the main catalysts for his constant travels.
He has recorded in his sketchbooks, many beautiful artworks and sketches, notes and information, as well as countless new creative ideas!
‘Sketching while traveling’ has enabled him to walk out of the studio and his own limitations, while opened up limitless possibilities.
It also taught him valuable lessons – to observe the world, to know the world, and to create the worlds he sees through his own eyes.
‘Sketching while traveling’ is a journey for enlightenment and knowledge. It is also an alternative method to treasure a memory by in-depth understanding, both visually and audibly.
To Jayson, the ultimate objectives of traveling and sketching are not the artworks created or the opportunity to see magnificent landscapes and rivers, but his interactions with the environment and the community, his means of observing the world, and those people and things, which had touched him one way or another along the journey. They not only broadened his horizons, but also enriched his personal feelings.
Such experiences make him grow as an artist to create better works, and at the same time encourage him to keep moving towards his artistic journey.
I did this sketch from my imagination although I often draw from photos. I have always loved drawing and I think looking at animal photography books when doing drawings, was partly what got me into taking photos myself. My mum went to art college when she was younger, so she's always encouraged me to draw. Can't draw people to save my life, just like animals really :) Anyway, I quite liked this one, so thought I'd put it up... and a couple of other, very quick sketches!
To prep for travel, I've pared down the contents of my bag to the bare essential. To see what I cut out, please see my blog post, "Putting My Bag on a Diet": www.tina-koyama.blogspot.com/2013/05/putting-my-bag-on-di...
Sketching the Portland theatre sign reflected in the building windows across from my room at the Heathman Hotel.
I like to do raw ink sketches while watching a DVD...it really sets in my mind what I have seen and hope to learn --this was a waterolor demonstration by John Hoar filmed at Aldeburgh on the Suffolk coast..I loved the way it was done, as he speaks all the time of what he is doing and thinking as he paints ..you see the way he works his palette and watch him create in his style..somethings I always wondered about were brought to light--and there you are..awed by his mind...in the sketches I'd add words said etc...it was enough to watch one painting at a time...and then look at another later---I absorb better that way..so much of what he points out applies to other types of works, too..
Pencil sketches, after ref. I like how long the first one turned out, I think it looks just short enough for it not to look super weird. I also like the ribs and muscles of the second one :)
