Had little time to sketchcrawl last weekend, but found a great corner near us in NW.
Around the corner from the main Pro Photo shop on 19th is the new-old building, where they’ve taken a dull green-grey corner at 18th and Marshall and brightened it up.
I used deep colors, with layered dark colors on top and tried a deep shadow.
Not to bad, running colors (I like) and fine for the field.
This entry used to be unnoticeable; the colors all around it have popped it and made the entire entry cheery and inviting. I thought of this as I am a red door lover!
Strathmore Journal, with a Pentalic woodless pencil, Platinum Carbon pen,
Noodler’s Lexington Grey ink grisaille (not nearly dark enough), White Uniball Signo pen, and Greenleaf & Blueberry, Daniel Smith, and Holbein watercolors.

Probably out of mind too, but I’d like to see it. I visit B&H Photo in NYC with my daughter. She knows what she’s doing. I’m just fascinated. I did get my Nikon point and shoot there. I love that camera.

I’ve bought from them on the internet. I’d love to go too — geekdom!
