Completed-- my USk folding Moleskine!

Image
It took long enough (3 months) but I finally filled my Urban Sketchers folding Moleskine with San Antonio.  This will be a long post, since I'm gonna put every spread in here.   It's actually four separate panos, all of which I drew on site in downtown San Antonio. The first is a 180 degree sketch of Houston Street just north of Alamo Plaza. The second pano is of Navarro Street and the Nix Hospital. The third is on Commerce Street and features the Aztec Theater. The fourth pano is only 90 degrees (I ran out of room) and was done in front of the old San Antonio Courthouse.  They are all stitched together by means of a transitional device I borrowed from Urban Sketcher Pete Scully --  a light pole or street sign is used as a divider between panoramas, and fortunately I was able to use what was already there.   First, the assembled panorama: Then split into 3 equal parts for easier digestion: And each spread in order: All in all, the whole thing

Here's a few more I've done recently and hadn't posted yet.  I'm working my way up to some larger drawings.  I just acquired a really big drawing board and a big Bristol pad, so I may have to venture out with some big gear in the next few weeks.

Apologies for the long absence.  I've been sickly and I was out of town, etc. but no excuses-- I flaked.   So here are some pictures.  To keep things from being overhwelming and to keep the most recent stuff nearer to the top of the page I'm breaking this update up into 3 parts.  Here's part 3: There you have it.  Now we're up to speed.  Only a few more things to post and I'll be totally caught up.
