WWM: Day 10, VSW Rockport Sailboat

I sketched the sailboat in ink and added shadow in waterproof grey ink.

I’m not a person who can ever be in a boat for more than a few moments —
I get deadly motion sickness!
I love their shape and detail and craftsmanship!
They intimidate me, and so, of course, I had to try one…

I admit I am not as happy with this sketch… Feels staid.

Thanks to Tom Brudzinski for the great images from which to sketch!

As I move along, I’ll put all my Rockport images here!

“Paint as you like and die Happy!”*
