Bus stop

Watercolour

Quick sketch as I was waiting for the bus one night. I'm aware that the perspective is not quite right, but rather than fixing it decided to leave it as is in honour of the original moment. Some things aren't meant to be fixed; some things are lovely because they are wonky. I'm a sucker for nostalgia.

Quick sketches around Central Park

A couple of half (assed) finished sketches of stuff I saw around Central Park before my fingers turned numb from the cold and I started drawing pigs.
  

This was such a dodgy underpass. I bet this is where seedy drug deals go down and hobos get murdered in their sleep. I'd've gone exploring if not for the fact that it stank like peepees.

Something magical happens to the trees when the weather turns cold - they take on a beautiful, dreamy plum-colour that I tried very hard to capture in this quick sketch (not very well, but you get the general idea).
 
This is a pig symbolising my frustration at life (thank you gloomy weather) and also my love of bacon.
