Inking and traveling

[wayfaringwordhack]

 We went to the south of France for my mother-in-law's birthday, so I have not worked in my normal Inktober style for many days now. The material is too messy and copious to work with elsewhere, so I just took along some fineliners and a sketchbook. I amused myself doing some drawings with both hands at the same time (one subject that is more or less symmetrical and trying to capture both sides of it at the same time using both my right and left hands. Interestingly, I noticed that I looked much more at the left side, being left-handed; so next time, I will try to look at the right side more often.) and drawing my MIL's water pitcher. The day we got back, I drew some trees, inspired by the art in the book The Tough Princess, and some from my imagination.
 

I did a thumbnail for my next Yupo piece last night, but I don't know when I will get to it. I have once again spent my morning trying to fix my scanner, when what I need to be doing is preparing for Sprout's birthday next week.

I love the symbols on the the pitcher, and its overall patchwork look.

And in the trees, I can see inspiration from the various places you've lived :-)
